Non-matriculates are referred to as alums, so yes, that includes non-graduates.
This is how AXO is also but dang if you can get the girls to understand that!!! Every semester I get 3 or 4 calls "I am going to be inactive this semester" -- as if a) that is something automatically given out, and b) we had an "inactive" status.

But I do like to catch their attention - here is the usual convo:

Member: "I am going to be inactive this semester. What do I need to do?"

Me: "Come into standards board and sign your resignation papers."

Member: "WHAT??!! No - I don't want to resign - I am going to be inactive."

Me: "There is no inactive status - you either are or you aren't - if you are, then we'll see you at the meeting... if you aren't, then we'll see you at standards to sign your paperwork."

This, of course, is usually followed soon after by a response from our consultant who will say "Suzy Sue just called and wanted to know why she can't be inactive so I explained it to her" - gotta love when they think that you don't know what you're talking about and go to HQ to hear the same thing!!
