Can I join Accounting Club?

 

Membership is open to both undergraduate and graduate students at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. All majors are welcome. 

 

How can I learn more about Accounting Club before joining?

​

 

We encourage you to find our booth on Gies Groups during the Gies Involvement Fair. There, you can sign up to be included in our email list by filling out the interest form. You can also learn more about us and receive event updates through our social media (Facebook and Instagram). 

​

When are the Information Nights and why should I attend?

 

Our Information Nights will be on August 23rd with Deloitte in David Kinley Hall Room 114 and August 24th with Caterpillar in Education Building Room 2. Attendance at Information Night is recommended but not required in order to join the club. All new and returning members are encouraged to attend an Information Night to learn more about the club, hear from accounting firm representatives, and learn about any new changes and opportunities. All members in attendance will receive a professional point. 

 

What should I do if I’m interested in joining Accounting Club but cannot attend an Information Night?

 

At the beginning of the semester, we will publish the link to the Interest Form on our website. Please complete this form to ensure you receive our emails regarding details on how to join. 

 

How will I be notified about Accounting Club events?

 

Once you have joined the club, you will receive a weekly email including the date, time, dress code, and description of events occurring that week. This information will also be available on the member log-in page on our website. Additionally, you will have access to a Google Calendar with Accounting Club events. 

​

How can I keep track of my membership points?

 

At every Accounting Club event, there will be a check-in where you can write your name and NetID to ensure you receive a point for your attendance. Once you have paid your dues, you will be added to the Accounting Club Facebook group which will include a link to the membership spreadsheet. Your points will be added to the membership spreadsheet within a week of the event, and you can contact the Membership Chairs if you see any discrepancies with your points.
