ACHIEVE ACTIVE STATUS

Achieving active status is not a requirement to be in the club, although we strongly encourage all members to be active. Obtaining active status in the Accounting Club provides many benefits, including:

• Being recognized at the end of the semester

• Having your resume included in a resume booklet that will be sent to various firms

• Obtaining valuable knowledge and experience from participating in a variety of events and interacting with different people.

To obtain active status, you must attend and actively participate in the following events:

• 8 Mandatory Events

• 4 Socials

• 3 Professional Development Events (at least one must be a workshop)

• 2 General Meetings

• 2 Community Service Events

For non-accounting OR non-business majors, you must attend and actively participate in the following events for:

• 6 Mandatory Events*

• 3 Socials

• 1 Professional Development Event

• 2 General Meetings

• 1 Community Service Events

*If you are a non-accounting OR non-business major, please contact the executive board about obtaining waivers for AGIF and Meet the Pros/HAPA Students’ Night.

For Fall semesters, non-accounting OR non-business majors are not required to attend AGIF. Please the Executive Board to obtain a waiver to make up the Professional Development with either an extra social or community service event.

Active status cannot be achieved without fulfilling mandatory events requirements.

Please see the Active Status Sheet for more information.

WAIVERS

You must accomplish ONE of the following to obtain one (1) waiver:

• Attend all three (3) General Meetings

• Attend one (1) extra event from any category (Community Service, Socials, or Professional Events)

Waivers for mandatory events are to be used on a case-by-case basis at the discretion of the Executive Board. If you know you will be missing a mandatory event, please notify the director who is hosting the event prior to the Final List date with your reasoning. The Executive Board will then discuss whether or not the event can be waived during Executive Board meetings. Only two (2) waivers will be granted each semester. Waivers cannot be carried over to subsequent semesters.
