Membership to Delta Alpha Pi is open to both undergraduate and graduate students at colleges and universities who have established chapters and who meet the following criteria:

All students must present with a documented disability and must work with a faculty member or advisor in the Disability Resource Center; students must demonstrate an interest in disability issues; undergraduate students must have completed a minimum of 24 credits and earned an overall GPA of 3.10; graduate students must have completed a minimum of 18 graduate credits and earned an overall GPA of 3.30.
