FTE Cards

To encourage smaller school programming, the APCA has also begun the voluntary "FTE" (full time enrollment) discount card program. Based on the full time enrollment status of the campus, a school may receive between 3% to 7% off the listed price of a participating artist or other attraction. This discount is in addition to any other cooperative or onsite discounts, but the attraction must be booked on-site. The breakdown of the school population full time enrollment (FTE) discounts are as follows:

9,900 - 5,000          FTE Discount    3%
5,000 - 3,000          FTE Discount    5%
Below 3000             FTE Discount    7%

These programs are completely voluntary. A listing of all associates offering these discounts as well as the schools accepted for the FTE discount will be published and distributed at the national conference registration. All associates participating in either or both programs will be given signs to place in their booths indicating their participation. Schools accepted to  receive either discount will be given FTE cards to present to participating associates when filling out cooperative buying forms.
  
In order to participate in the APCA Full Time Enrollment Card  program, you should complete the FTE area of the enclosed membership application form and mail it to the APCA postmarked before February 1, 2001. We must have a signed copy on file at the conference in order to issue an FTE  card entitling you to the discount.
