Subscriptions Rates for Applicants
Subscriptions for new applications during the year 2009/10
New applicants for all grades of membership will be charged only the Associate rate for their first year's subscription. If you are a new applicant for Fellow or Member, you will temporarily be admitted to Associate membership pending full evaluation of your application. If successful, you will be charged the rate for your new category in the next subscription year.
Please submit both the Associate rate subscription (including payment for IJFST if required) and Application fee with your Application form.
The IFST subscription year runs from 1 October to 30 September. If you apply after 1 April 2010, 50% of your subscription will be credited as part payment against the subscription applicable for 2010/11.
