Frequently Asked Questions about Membership

10. If I am a Full member now and become a Student member for the next few years, will I be able to return to Full membership status after I graduate, or do I have to reapply and send in new paperwork?

ABA InternationalTM retains records of your previous membership type; therefore, you would not need to reapply and submit new paperwork following a change in student status. This is true for Full, Emeritus, and Affiliate membership types.

Because the designation of Chapter/Adjunct or Student membership depends on your current status as a chapter member or full-time student, you would need to reapply and include the proper documentation to return to either of these membership types.
