Member Accident Protection Program

What is MAPP?  

  

The member accident protection program of the fraternity is a benefit of membership. The program is intended to compliment the health insurance program of every undergraduate member of the fraternity for injuries as a result of an accident. The premium for this program is paid by the fraternity and the program may be cancelled or changed at the sole discretion of the fraternity at any time. The information provided is for informational purposes only and is not intended to replace the insurance contract.  For specific information regarding any claim, or to determine if your organization purchases this coverage, please contact Willis.
