In order for a LSUS student to become an initiate, this person
must meet the following criteria:

If you meet these criteria you are eligible to apply for membership. Becoming
a member is basically a two part process. First you need to submit an application
to the organization. If you are approved, you will be invited to become an
initiate. All initiates then go through a series of educational meetings to
orient them with the organization and how it works.
