You can add student members in multiple batches in the membership registration system.
In Michigan, since the Secondary regional registration deadline is in mid November, you should plan to submit all your students' names at least two business days before the regional competition registration deadline to avoid any regional competition registration late fees. Any names and registrations submitted after the registration deadline will be charged a $100 late fee if you wish to have the student compete in any competitions other than open events. Otherwise, the student may still join and compete in open events only and all other BPA programs.
For Postsecondary chapters, students can be added up until late January 21, 2026.
