This membership type is available only to those currently enrolled in an academic program.
If someone is a student at the time they apply for membership, they are considered a student for the entire year. If they are not a member, they must be a student at the time of conference registration in order to be considered a student during the conference (e.g., for award eligibility).
Upon completion of their degree, students may choose to renew their membership to CSRF at Member or Associate Member status.
