Apply for Associate AJS Membership (i.e. Associate Membership of the EAJS for AJS Members)

Available to scholars based outside Europe who are current members of the Association for Jewish Studies (AJS) in good standing

To apply for Associate AJS membership, please complete the online form below.

If you are already a member or have been a member in the past, please contact the EAJS Administrator rather than applying again as your original membership record probably still exists. There is no need to apply again simply to change your membership type or if you have forgotten your password. Applying again may lead to you having multiple membership records under different user-ids/emails.

Please make sure you have read our Privacy Policy to understand what information we require and how we use it.

Note that your AJS membership must be fully up to date in order to qualify for this category of EAJS membership.

When you click the Apply button at the bottom of the form, you will be directed to the subscription payment facility operated by WorldPay. Once your subscription has been paid you will receive an email advising of your login details. This provides provisional confirmation of your membership.

Please note that our membership year runs from 1 January to 31 December. Payments during a membership year will be assigned to that membership year unless the member is in arrears for previous years or is already fully paid up for that year. Members who are already fully paid up for the year that a membership payment is received will be credited for the following year. For members that are in arrears for more than 1 year, a payment for the current membership year and the previous membership year (i.e. a payment for 2 years of membership) will be considered sufficient to clear all prior arrears and return the membership to active good standing for the current year. New members who apply to join on or after 1 July of a membership year will pay their annual subscription upon joining, but it will be credited to the following year with the current year being waived.

For details of membership categories please go to Membership Categories and Subscription Rates.
