Student
Available to undergraduates or wholly grant supported post graduate research students who are not in employment.
When applying you will be asked for proof of student status. Usually a letter from your academic institution with the start and expected finish date of your studies. If the evidence provided is not considered sufficient your application is likely to be rejected, allowing you to reapply once you have acquired satisfactory documentation to include with your application.
Healthcare professionals in a salaried position such as those on the NHS Scientist Training Programme do not qualify for Student membership and should apply under the Member category.

The Membership applications approval process can take up to two weeks depending when you apply, but is usually within 7-10 days.
We offer monthly, biannual or annual subscription payment options however it must be noted that Membership is an annual commitment irrespective of payment frequency. Your subscription will commence on approval and would then be due for renewal each anniversary of that date.
The Trade Union will not normally provide resources in support of a member's industrial relations case where the main substance of the case began before or within 90 days of the date of application for membership, however at the discretion of Trade Union Officers appropriate advice may be offered.
