The MAA Student Chapters program was launched in January 1989 to encourage students to continue study in the mathematical sciences, provide opportunity to meet with other students interested in mathematics, interact with prominent mathematicians at national meetings, and provide career information in the mathematical sciences. MAA Student Chapter membership differs from ordinary student membership in that the dues are somewhat lower and renewal at the discounted rate is available only through the Chapter. Upon graduation each student will have the opportunity to continue his or her membership in the MAA for one year at the Student Chapter rate.
Membership is a calendar year.
We encourage Student Chapter members to join in the fall or early winter of each calendar year so that their applications can be processed and begun by January. Students must fill out the Student Chapter Membership Form and return it to their faculty advisor. The faculty advisor will send the students' forms as well as the Chapter Application Form to the MAA Service Center at P.O. Box 90973, Washington, DC 20090-0973. Members whose applications are received in October or November will begin to receive membership benefits immediately and throughout the following year. Members whose applications are received in the first half of the year will be sent all back journal issues to the beginning of the year.
