EAJS Membership is open to all with an active scholarly interest in Jewish studies. Applications for membership should be supported by the names of two referees in the field of Jewish studies familiar with your work. We do not require that references be submitted at the time of application.
Should you wish to join EAJS, please complete an online application form by pressing the button for the appropriate type of membership and the number of years you wish to pay for at this time. Please note that new membership applications are usually processed at the beginning of each month so you may not receive an immediate confirmation of membership.
Existing Student Members should NOT pay a membership fee. If you wish to change your existing free Student Membership to Full or Associate Membership, please contact the EAJS Administrator first by email.

Student Membership
Available to PhD students in the field of Jewish studies (within or outside Europe)
Please note that our membership year runs from 1 January to 31 December.
Payments received during a membership year will be assigned to that membership year (and subsequent years if a multi-year payment) unless the member is in arrears or is already paid up for the current membership year.
For members who are paid up for the current membership year, the payment will be applied to the following years.
For members who are in arrears, a payment for the previous membership year and the current membership year (i.e., a two-year membership payment) will be considered sufficient to clear all prior arrears and return the membership to good standing.
