I didn't see this before I replied. Check your PM.

I am very interested in pursuing membership as well (Atlanta.) I worked with a school that was associated with the Atlanta chapter, and have heard nothing but positive things about them. :)

The deadline for the next provisional class is October 15.
You can apply online at http://www.jlatlanta.org/ or send in a paper application.

I need to go ahead and decide if I will apply for this class or wait!

I thought you had to be sponsored by a current member. That's one of the reasons I've been holding off.

Different chapters have different requirements regarding sponsorship.

While I'm not absolutely positive, I believe Atlanta is one of the chapters that requires a sponsor but will find one among their active members for you if you do not already have one. You might want to check their website or give them a call to find out for sure.

iamcurious is right. If you don't know someone in the League personally, they will match you with someone. That was one reason why I was holding off as well.

I am considering joining the League here where I work (moved for my job). It seems like a lot of work, especially as a provisional so I'll keep everyone posted on what I decide to do. I have so much to do for the sorority and work that I don't know if I should give it a try.

We (JLLA) just started earlier this month. OMIgoodness! My calendar is full of JL events.

Thanks! I submitted my app, and am just waiting for a yay or nay. :)

Glad to see everyone off to a fun JL year

This is my 3rd active year. I'm placed at a local women's shelter where I'll be teaching life skills classes to homeless women.

What is everyone else doing for your JL?

What are you doing with your League?
 
For my first year as an active, I am working with two local elementary schools. We take the girls to cultural events like the ballet, plays, mural tours, etc. Things they may not otherwise be exposed to.

Is your League offering the League Presidential Service Award?
