Why are Penn affiliate membership rates better than affiliate or associate membership rates?
The Penn Club’s existence was made possible through a massive pledge drive which garnered sufficient donations to The University of Pennsylvania to acquire and renovate the clubhouse building. It is a testament to the strength of the Penn alumni community, as the significant cost of acquiring a building in a prime area of Manhattan is cost-prohibitive to most schools. Alumni of a few select schools are welcome to join the Club so as to help strengthen the network of our membership community. The special membership rates are intended to be a privilege of those affiliated with Penn only.
