| Application process | Applicants review the eligibility categories and the published dues schedule, then select their affiliation and complete an online application form. The club verifies the applicant's university affiliation directly with the institution and a member of the team follows up to finalise details. The club's Become a Member page asks applicants to allow two to three weeks for review, while its membership FAQ says a membership is activated within 10 to 15 business days; new members then receive membership numbers and an electronic welcome package. Commonwealth applicants complete a separate application and need a member sponsor. | There is no open application. A current member submits a nomination through the SV mobile app, the SV website portal or the membership team, and the club then sends an application to the candidate. Applications are reviewed monthly by the membership committee. Non-members cannot tour the club before applying; the club suggests asking a member to bring them as a guest. |
| Selectivity | Not publicly disclosed as an acceptance rate. Eligibility is defined by university affiliation; the only published numerical limit is the 50 Commonwealth places reserved each year. | The club publishes no acceptance rate. It states that applicants who do not hear from the membership committee within six weeks have been waitlisted, asks them not to chase for updates, and advises them to seek additional nominations instead. |
