AAUW, founded in 1881, is open to all graduates who hold an associate or equivalent, baccalaureate, or higher degree from a qualified educational institution, or a degree from a qualified foreign institution. Most members of the Fox Chapel Area Branch reside in the Fox Chapel Area School District which is composed of Aspinwall, Blawnox, O’Hara Township, Sharpsburg, Indiana Township and Fox Chapel Borough, although this is not a requirement for membership and we have members who also reside in Hampton, Allison Park, Oakmont, Highland Park, Shadyside, Brookline, and other communities as well.
