There is a deadline for dues, but not membership. Students can join throughout the fall or spring semester; however, if dues are not paid by each semester’s deadline, some benefits may be missed. Dues must be PAID by the deadline specified on the “Dues Due” page on this site to have full access to activities such as office visits and club meetings and for scholarships. If you cannot pay dues by the date specified, contact the Treasurer to discuss your situation.
What is the dress code for meetings and other events?
*Business Casual is recommended for club meetings and office visits. ***Business Professional is required for Meet the Firms, Mock Interviews, Spring Showcases, and your own interviews with recruiters. Remember that you only get one chance to make a good first impression. Career Services operates the Career Closet where students can obtain business suits and other professional attire free of charge: http://www.careerservices.txstate.edu/Career-Closet-.html
Yes, students should submit a new application and pay dues each semester (fall & spring).
The membership application process is completely online. Apply using the Qualtrics survey on the Membership page and follow the instructions for paying dues.

What are the membership dues required to join the Accounting Club?
$25 by the deadline per semester to be a student member. The dues are collected at the same time you submit an application.

Please contact our Treasurer via an email at accoountingclub@txstate.edu to make other payment arrangements.

How are the membership dues used?
