CRITERIA FOR FULL MEMBERSHIP
Full membership will be given to programs which have a substantial commitment to the purpose of the Association and have organized separately identified curricula leading to professional graduate degrees in public affairs and administration or to relevant baccalaureate and pre-baccalaureate degrees.
Membership does NOT mean that a program is accredited by NASPAA or that NASPAA has made any judgment about the quality of its academic program. However, regular institutional members are eligible to apply for accreditation.
