Read a requirement as the organization's published floor, not as a promise. A revenue test may have alternative versions for different business types, chapters can set stricter local tests, and invitation-only bodies publish criteria that describe members rather than admit them.

How admission works

Application process
The club publishes no application process. There is no membership page, application form or membership contact on the public website; enquiries would have to go through the club's general contact details or an existing member.
Invitation required
— not documented by the organization or a source we could verify
Sponsor required
— not documented by the organization or a source we could verify
Selectivity
Not publicly disclosed
Membership term
— not documented by the organization or a source we could verify
Primary audience
The club publishes no eligibility criteria; its own history describes the founders as men prominent in the civic, commercial, financial and social life of New York, and the club today presents itself simply as a private social club.
Typical member
Not publicly disclosed. The club's public site carries no membership section, no eligibility statement and no member statistics.
