FAQ
Wait. I don’t really get which option I should sign up for.
If you are an undergraduate student just getting interested in a career in real estate we recommend the Basic Membership.
If you are an undergraduate student committed to a career in real estate we recommend the Premium Membership.
If you are a graduate student you will need to sign up for the Premium Membership.
Why the price difference?
We have been fortunate enough to receive sponsorship to subsidize the membership dues of undergraduate members joining as Basic Members. We are working on a similar sponsorship for graduate members, but are not yet able to offer subsidized memberships. Dues help pay for infrastructure costs (like this fancy website), costs associated with events, and other operational costs. If you would like to join as a premium member but are financially burden, please contact us at uwreclub@gmail.com.
