The prime qualification for admission into the Royal Arch is to be
a Master Mason, of at least four weeks standing, in a Lodge under
the United Grand Lodge of England, or a Lodge under a Grand Lodge
recognised by it.
As in all other Masonic Orders you will need a proposer and seconder
who are members of the Chapter in which you seek to be exalted.
If your Lodge does not have a Royal Arch Chapter attached to it
it will probably have an arrangement with a local Chapter. Check
your Lodge summons which may give details of either the Chapter
attached to it, a Chapter to which it supplies candidates or a member
of the Lodge who is a Royal Arch Mason who will assist members interested
in joining the RoyalArch.
If there are no details on your Lodge summons you can usually identify
the members of your Lodge who are Royal Arch Masons as they will
normally wear the jewel of the Order with their Craft regalia. They
will be delighted to be approached about membership.
If all that fails, in London you can contact the Metropolitan Grand
Lodge office, in a Province or District the Provincial or District
Office.
