DUES: DISTRICT, STATE, & NATIONAL
PLEASE BE CERTAIN THAT YOU READ, UNDERSTAND, AND FOLLOW THE GUIDELINES
1. WHEN IS THE DEADLINE FOR MEMBERSHIP DUES?
February 1 for Collegiate members to be eligible to attend SLC or run for state office.
2. HOW MUCH ARE FBLA COLLETIATE DUES AND WHERE SHOULD THE DUES BE SENT?
The amount of Collegiate district dues varies with each district. Your district dues should be mailed to your district director or to the location specified by her/him.
State dues are $10 per member. National dues are $10 per member.
Mail to: FBLA, Inc., Membership Dues, P.O. Box 79063, Baltimore, MD21279-0063.
3. MAY I SEND CASH OR A PERSONAL CHECK FOR MY SCHOOL'S DUES?
The state and national offices prefer that you send a school or county check or a money order. Cash can easily be lost in the mail; a personal check for dues could imply mixing of personal funds and student funds, which auditors strongly encourage us to have you avoid.
4. IS IT POSSIBLE TO SWITCH DUES MONEY FROM ONE STUDENT TO ANOTHER?
No. Once the money is received in the national office, it is designated for the identified student and cannot be transferred.
