The College of Fellows (FAIA Memberships)
Founded in 1952, the College of Fellows is composed of members of the Institute who are elected to Fellowship by a jury of their peers. Fellowship is one of the highest honors the AIA can bestow upon a member. Elevation to Fellowship not only recognizes the achievements of the architect as an individual but also elevates before the public and the profession those architects who have made significant contributions to architecture and to society. if you are interesting in applying to the College of Fellows, you can learn more here: https://www.aia.org/design-excellence/awards/fellowship
