FAQ
Which option should I sign up for?
Basic Membership is perfect for undergraduate students beginning to explore career opportunities in the industry at no cost.
Premium Membership provides enhanced resources for students dedicated to pursuing a real estate career.
Graduate students: Premium Membership is required for all graduate student members.
Why the price difference?
Thanks to generous support from our industry sponsors, we can offer Basic Memberships to undergraduate students who are just getting started in real estate at no cost. We're working hard to secure similar sponsorship for graduate students. Membership dues help us cover important expenses like maintaining our website, hosting quality events, and keeping the club running smoothly. We believe cost should never keep a student from joining. If you're interested in Premium Membership but concerned about the price, please reach out to us at UWREClub@gmail.com—we're happy to work with you.
