Question: How do you join? - Anonymous
Hello! GPA is an open membership organization as a whole, meaning that anyone from the Penn community can attend our events. However, two of our four branches, the Penn Political Review and the Forum for Legislative Action, have application processes given their long-term project-based nature. The Polybian Society and the Penn Political Union do not have application processes to join and you can join at any time.

How to Get Involved
Anyone is free to attend GPA events, however we have opened up a new application for our Committees: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdXqEToty40IuNrLZVlRc4XS506fxMPS8V_zYpgLv8OKAf82Q/viewform?usp=header There are no membership requirements for Polybian, and there are brief application processes for PPR and Forum.
Interested in hearing more about GPA and its branches? Head to our website (penngpa.com) to join our listserv and check out our social media!
Our branches consist of the following:
Polybian Society - Open to all, weekly symposium discussions around a designated topic. It is a great way to meet new people and enjoy food and drinks
Penn Political Union - Hosts events with student debates, faculty discussions, and prominent speaker events. All of these events are open to everyone and food is usually provided.
Penn Political Review - GPA's political publication branch. On top of its full-time editorial staff, students can also learn from the business side of publications
Forum for Legislative Action - A legislative advocacy program where members write an original policy proposal and then meet with congressional staffers to get policy passed. A process that includes an annual trip to Washington, D.C. to lobby for the respective policies.
