1. We can only give out the password to a limited number of new members each month.
2. You can only be admitted into one house and therefore can only receive the password to one house.
3. You must be sorted into Slytherin by our Sorting Hat before requesting the Slytherin password. 
4. Whether you opt to use the automatic sorter or the self-sorter, and whether you submit your self-sort scores or compute them yourself, you will be instructed to send your password request by owl. 
5. Once we receive your request, we will send the password to you if it is available at that time. Owl travel time varies, however, and could take several days, or in certain circumstances, several weeks. Alternatively, you might receive it immediately..
6. The password gives you access to visit the Slytherin common room, but it doesn't automatically make you an official house member. See the rules on becoming an official student below.

To become an official Slytherin House Member, you must follow these steps in this order:
1. Get sorted into Slytherin (as explained above) and acquire the password, if it is available.
2. Use the password to visit the Slytherin common room.
3. Register as a member of our HPThemePark forum, where the Slytherin common room is located.
4. Subscribe to the Slytherin mailing list. Once you are subscribed, you will receive instructions on how to enroll and you'll begin receiving the Slytherin gazette.
5. Reply to the "Please Introduce Yourself" message located near the top of the Slytherin common room board.
6. If there is room for you in Slytherin,you will be placed on the house roster. 
7. Once you are on the roster, you may begin submitting assignments and earning points.
This process can take several days. Please be patient.
