No. Receiving a letter simply means that the Stanford Who's Who Marketing and Research Department has identified you as a candidate for the Stanford Who's Who Registry. You are invited to complete a phone interview with one of the Stanford Who's Who Account Directors, who will determine if you are qualified for membership.
How is an individual selected for candidacy?
The Stanford Who's Who Marketing and Research Department looks for accomplished individuals who would benefit most from
our networking resources. These are people who we feel are on a path to future success either because of their past
accomplishments, status in their field or their credentials. We use a variety of resources to identify Stanford Who's
Who candidates. Individuals who are affiliated with professional associations and societies, attend core events within
their field or subscribe to certain periodicals are ideal candidates, as they have sought enrichment within their career
fields and participate in activities that extend beyond the workplace. These are the executives, professionals and
entrepreneurs who we actively seek out and select as candidates for the Stanford Who's Who Registry.
In addition, the 50,000 active members of Stanford Who's Who among Executives, Professionals and Entrepreneurs have the
ability to nominate peers, colleagues, mentors and associates for Stanford Who's Who membership. Nominating others is a
privilege reserved exclusively for our members.
Who nominated me?
Unless we indicate that you were nominated by a Stanford Who's Who member, you were not nominated, but selected by our Marketing and Research Department.
How do I become a member?
You must complete the
Enroll Page or fill out the form that was mailed to you.
If you choose to fill out the form
you received in the mail, you can either fax it to (631) 206-9125 or place it in an envelope and send it to the
following address:

Once we receive your completed application, a Stanford Who's Who representative reviews your information
and contacts you via telephone to conduct a short interview. Upon completion of the interview, the representative
will state if your membership has been approved and then outline the details of Stanford Who's Who membership if
you are selected for membership.
I don't feel comfortable mailing in my application. Do you have an online application?
Yes, please fill out the form located on our Enroll Page. Keep your application code handy.
How long should I wait to be interviewed?
Due to the overwhelming response rate, you can expect to be contacted by phone between two weeks to a month after we receive your online or paper application.
How much does it cost to be included?
There is no cost for the complimentary listing in our online registry. There is a cost associated with our membership programs, as they feature additional products and services.
If I become a member, will you sell my name or contact information to others?
No. All membership information is considered personal and confidential and will not be sold to third parties.
I don't feel I am qualified to be listed. Why did I receive this mailing?
In the past, who's who organizations listed only the biographies of high profile individuals. Stanford Who's Who has identified the benefit of offering professional networking services to its members and facilitating networking opportunities among executives, professionals and entrepreneurs in different stages of their careers. There are many worthy candidates on their way to becoming leaders in their respective fields who can benefit from membership. Do not be discouraged from applying if you have not reached your end career goal or are still establishing yourself in your profession. ENROLL
