REQUIREMENTS
2010-2011 Undergraduate Chapter Requirements
The basic requirements outlined below are the minimum requirements for a chapter to retain its standing as an undergraduate chapter in the Net Impact network.
Chapters meeting silver and gold requirements receive special recognition and benefits as a result of their accomplishments. Net Impact Central keeps track of each undergraduate chapter’s progress toward silver or gold standing from May 1, 2010 through April 15, 2011. You'll report your met requirements for evaluation of chapter status as part of Annual Chapter Reporting in April 2011.
Silver chapters go above and beyond minimum chapter requirements by contributing to other chapters' success through their engagement with the chapter leader network and by meeting other benchmarks of success. To become a silver chapter, you must meet the silver requirements.
Gold chapters make outstanding contributions to the Net Impact network by collaborating with other chapters and cooperating with Net Impact Central to achieve other strategic goals. To become a gold chapter, your chapter must meet all of the silver and gold requirements.
