inductee
Freshly welcomed member
An inductee is someone being inducted—formally admitted into a group, organization, or position.
The word appears most often in military contexts, where an inductee is a person drafted or enlisted into service, and in discussions of halls of fame: The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame announced this year's inductees.
