How long does Honor Society membership last?

Honor Society® membership does not expire.

Once you join Honor Society, your membership continues indefinitely unless you choose to close your account or it is closed for policy-related reasons.

Definition

Honor Society membership is ongoing and does not expire.
Paid participation levels are optional and have billing periods, but they do not determine how long membership lasts.

Membership and participation levels are separate.

Does free Basic membership expire?

No.

Free Basic membership:

• Does not expire

• Does not require renewal

• Does not require payment to remain active

You remain an Honor Society® member even if you never choose a paid participation level.

Do paid participation levels affect how long membership lasts?

No.

Paid participation levels (such as Bronze, Silver, Gold, or Signature):

• Do not extend membership duration

• Do not shorten membership duration

• Do not replace free Basic membership

Ending a paid participation level does not end membership.

What happens if I cancel a paid participation level?

If you cancel or downgrade a paid participation level:

• Paid benefits remain active through the end of the billing period

• Your account returns to free Basic membership

• Your Honor Society® membership continues uninterrupted

Canceling a paid participation level does not cancel membership.

Does membership end after graduation?

No.

Honor Society membership continues after graduation. Members may remain part of Honor Society as students, graduates, or professionals.

Graduation does not affect membership status.

Can my membership ever end?

Membership only ends if:

• You choose to close your account, or

• Your account is closed for policy-related reasons (such as violations of Honor Society standards)

Membership does not end automatically due to inactivity, graduation, or cancellation of a paid participation level.

Why does Honor Society offer ongoing membership?

Honor Society is designed to provide long-term recognition and access, not temporary enrollment.

Ongoing membership allows members to:

• Maintain recognition over time

• Stay connected to opportunities beyond graduation

• Decide later whether optional participation levels are useful
