Fellowship is subject to termination if dues are outstanding for one or more years.
Are you wondering why your dues payment should be made payable to the ACS Professional Association (¶¶Òõ´«Ã½PA) rather than the ¶¶Òõ´«Ã½? ¶¶Òõ´«Ã½PA, the College’s 501(c) (6) tax-exempt affiliate, was created in 2001 to provide more flexibility so that the College can offer a broader range of activities and services to benefit the surgical profession and its patients, including an expanded legislative action program. The establishment of this corporation requires that dues be paid to ¶¶Òõ´«Ã½PA, which, in turn, finances the activities of the College. Further information about ¶¶Òõ´«Ã½PA and its relationship to the College can be viewed on the ACSPA website.
