Membership

BAP offers a pathway to lifetime membership through three levels: Candidate, Initiate, and Up-for Membership. Members progress each semester by contributing to the organization and the community. After reaching Up-for Membership and completing four consecutive semesters of active participation, members become eligible for lifetime membership as Initiated Members. This achievement is celebrated with an initiation dinner and the presentation of a lifetime membership pin, marking their lasting commitment to BAP.
