Reinstatement

We are thrilled you are interested in reinstating your Fellowship with the American Academy of Nursing. In order to remain in good standing as a Fellow of the American Academy of Nursing (FAAN), you must be current on dues. Dues must be paid annually by January 31 with a two-month grace period. A late fee is assessed beginning on April 1.

According to the American Academy of Nursing Dues Policy, as noted in the Bylaws, Fellowship is considered lapsed beginning May 1 when dues and the late fee have not been paid. A Fellow whose membership has lapsed may request reinstatement by completing the form below which will be shared with the Academy’s CEO. Additionally, they are required to pay the dues fee and the reinstatement fee.

Upon completion of the form below, you will be prompted to pay the reinstatement fee. Once your form and reinstatement fee have been received, the Academy’s Member Engagement Manager, will follow-up with details regarding how to log into your Academy profile in order to make your dues payment and officially reinstatement your membership.

Please contact Claire Holland, Member Engagement Manager, at cholland@aannet.org with any questions.

  • The reinstatement fee is $250
  • Regular Fellows dues rate is $605
  • Emeritus Fellows dues rate is $205
    • To qualify for the Emeritus dues rate, you must be retired from full-time employment and have reached the age of 70 years old.

Lapsed members are no longer in good standing with the American Academy of Nursing and do not have permission to use the FAAN credential. Fellows who have lapsed are ineligible to sponsor applicants for Fellowship and are unable to serve on committees, Expert Panels, taskforces, or national advisory councils. Additionally, they are not able to nominate Fellows for leadership positions or individuals for the Living Legend or Honorary Fellow designations, vote in the Academy election, or receive official communications from the organization.

Fellows who reinstate their membership are no longer considered lapsed and are in good standing and are eligible for the rights and benefits of being a Fellow as outlined in the Bylaws, including the ability to use the FAAN credential.
