No it is a 'by invitation' society for cinematographers, and in that sense unlike SAG, WGA, DGA, etc, which are more 'guild/union' like. It is involved in education and promoting the advancement of cinematographic quality.
The ASC also publishes a number of manuals on cinematography, as well as a monthly magazine, "The American Cinematographer". The latter should be a read by anyone who is interested in cinematography...

It basically means that if you have one, thebest cinematographers think you are good enough to join them. More than a dream, it's like impossible to get in.
