Student Member Status Expanded
A
reminder: AAPG Student members
who graduated this fiscal year
(between July 1, 2010 and June 30,
2011) now can choose to retain “Student”
status for an additional 24 months after
graduation – and take advantage of the
lower Student dues rate of $10.
Those with a non-North America
mailing address must also pay the $10
mail surcharge.
This new option is being offered
due to a bylaw change approved by
the AAPG House of Delegates to help
recent graduates with their transition to
employment – and Active status.
Recent graduates taking advantage
of this opportunity to extend their
current Student status will be
reclassified as a “Student YP” (student/
young professional).
An important note: All recent graduates
choosing to continue as a Student
member are personally responsible for
remittance of the $10 dues and mail
surcharge. These dues cannot be paid
by the Corporate Sponsorship program
(currently funded by Chevron), because
those funds are available only for those
actively/remain enrolled in school.
AAPG’s goal remains for all qualified
Student (and new Associate) members
to apply for advancement to Active
status as soon as they meet the
experience requirement.

website at aapg.org, or contact Member
Services – at members@aapg.org, or
