Admission
How an invitation is extended.
There are two ways into The Superior Circle: request an invitation on this site, or be nominated by a member. Either way, the same five steps follow, and every step is conducted in confidence. There is no fee at any point.
01. A request, or a nomination
Request an invitation here. It takes a few minutes. Or ask a member who knows you to nominate you. A nomination carries weight, but never a guarantee.
02. A discreet review
Our membership team reads every request personally, alongside standard identity and background checks.
03. A private conversation
About twenty minutes with a member of our team or a founding member. Nothing to prepare, nothing to present.
04. The council
A small admissions council of members decides. Members in your city and field may raise a concern in confidence.
05. The wave
Invitations are issued in waves, with a limited number of places per city in each wave. Those admitted receive a sealed letter and a personal welcome.
Every request receives an answer
An invitation, a place held for a future wave, or a respectful “not now,” with the door open again after twelve months.
Common questions
How do I get an invitation to The Superior Circle?
Request one at thesuperiorcircle.com/request, or ask a member to nominate you. Every request is read by a person and reviewed in confidence. There is no fee to request.
How long does a decision take?
We aim to reach a decision within weeks rather than months. Invitations are issued in waves, and every request receives an answer.
Can I pay to be admitted faster?
No. There is no paid route in and no way to skip the review.
Do I have to prove my wealth?
Not to request an invitation. You indicate a range, in confidence. Later, members may choose to confirm it through an independent professional letter, which is reviewed and then deleted. We will never ask for financial documents by email.
Can I check the status of my request?
Yes. Your confirmation email includes a personal status link. We will only ever write to you from an @thesuperiorcircle.com address.
