Reminder: When you affiliate your members be sure to add their email addresses at the same time. Students who are planning to:
- Participate in a Recognition Event;
- Compete in a competitive event that requires uploads to STEM Premier;
- Apply for a HOSA Scholarship
will only be able to access STEM Premier by creating an account that matches the email address used when they affiliated.
Note
: If you have already
affiliated your students and need to change any emails, you do not have access to make changes. You may send me a typed list of the student with their desired email address correction and I will make that adjustment in the system.

I had a question raised this week from one of our advisors regarding membership/affiliation deadlines. I hope the below clarification will help answer the question:
- Advisors may affiliate students until January 1st. Remember an earlier date of affiliation is required for all who are signing up for competitive events, FLC, and the CAVS game.
- Advisors may affiliate students who enroll in the second semester until March 1st. If you plan for these students to compete in a competitive event at the regional or state level, you will need to sign them up prior to the closing date of their respective regional competitive event registration deadline.
