National Membership Entry Fee

This is a one-time National Membership Entry Fee to join the Fraternity of Alpha Kappa Lambda. The National Membership Entry Fee must be paid in full along with the National Dues within 30 days of joining. Full or partial payment of all charges prior to Initiation Ceremony is strongly encouraged. While individual new members are responsible for paying their balance, the chapter is responsible for making sure the Membership Entry Fee and National Dues are paid in full. If a member drops or is removed from the roster, the chapter is still responsible for making sure that individual pays, otherwise it is the responsibility of the chapter.

National Dues, Fees & Insurance – Billing Adjustments and Removal from Roster

No adjustments will be made 15 days after billing. If the chapter roster was incorrectly or not updated on OmegaFi, or the National Headquarters was not notified in writing of requested changes, the chapter is responsible for the billed amount. If a member does not inform the chapter of his return or departure, the individual will be responsible for the difference. There are three ways a member can be removed from the roster.

  1. He decides to quit or leave the organization before initiation. After 15 days he is still responsible for all billed costs.
  2. He graduates or permanently leaves the institution. Statuses are available for Abroad, Student Teaching, and Military, where they will not be included in National Dues, Fees, and Insurance billing. The National Headquarters must be informed prior to billing. He is still responsible for all billed costs prior to graduation or leaving the institution..
  3. He is “Expelled” either by the chapter or of his own desire. This means he wishes to quit/leave the organization after initiation. He will lose all rights and privileges afforded to members and will no longer be recognized as Alpha Kappa Lambda. He is still responsible for all billed costs prior to being Expelled.

National Dues, Fees & Insurance – Financial Suspension

  • Financial Suspension 1: Any chapter with a past due balance will be placed on Financial Suspension 1. This means 15 days since the beginning of the semester, not 15 days since the Billing Cycle occurs. The chapter can continue to operate normally and hold all planned functions but this status serves as warning. Chapter volunteers and advisors will be notified if a chapter is placed on Financial Suspension 1.
  • Financial Suspension 2: Any chapter with a past due over 45 days will be placed on Financial Suspension 2. This means 45 days since the beginning of the semester. The chapter can only hold weekly meeting, host recruitment events, and work toward reducing the past due debt. This would mean potential loss of intramurals, socials/mixers, homecoming events, Greek Week. The National Headquarters staff will assist the chapter and oversee all financial operations via OmegaFi. Chapter volunteers, advisors, and the institution will be notified if a chapter is placed on Financial Suspension 2.
