Are alumni members required to pay affiliation fees?

Alumni members are indeed required to pay affiliation fees, which is an important aspect of maintaining their membership status within the organization. By paying these fees, alumni contribute to the ongoing activities, programs, and resources that HOSA provides, ensuring that the organization can continue supporting health science education and professional development for all its members, including those who have graduated.

This fee structure helps sustain the organization financially and allows alumni to stay connected with HOSA, participate in alumni-specific events, and access various resources that can aid them in their professional journeys. Furthermore, having a consistent policy regarding affiliation fees for alumni helps standardize membership requirements and ensures that all alumni have a vested interest in the organization’s success.
