Please include the member's full name at induction, their original chapter school, and the semester/year of induction.

Replacement Certificates

In case of the following, printed certificates may be ordered for $15.00 each:

  • the original certificate was lost;
  • the member's name changed after the member was inducted; or
  • the original certificate was misprinted as a result of the member's name not entered correctly into the Write Away membership database.

To order a replacement certificate, login to Write Away and select the Chapter Store tab. You will see an option to order a certificate and enter the correct name. Reprinted certificates will be mailed to the Lead Chapter Advisor.
