  • Are meetings mandatory?
    ​Nope! Your level of involvement is completely up to you, and we don't penalize members if they're unable to make it to one of our meetings. We do however, try to reward our most active and involved members!
  • What can I do to get more involved?
    There are a lot of ways to get more involved with NC State AMA! We have networking sessions, private career fairs, and company campus visits available for all of our ​members to attend. If you want to get even more involved, we hire directors every semester to help do things like coordinate events, and we recruit for our marketing agency at the beginning of each semester as well!
  • How can I go to New Orleans?
    At the end of each school year, our Executive Board (and a few of our most involved members) get to travel to New Orleans, Louisiana for the AMA International Collegiate Conference. Applicants who have served as directors or have received a lot of points due to their involvement are strongly considered. If you'd like to go to this year's conference, make sure you're getting involved! If you have any questions, ask someone on the Executive Board!
