And if you join as a graduate student, you'll automatically become a member of APAGS, the American Psychological Association for Graduate Students – the voice of student concerns in APA.

Your annual fee includes subscriptions to American Psychologist and Monitor on Psychology. Graduate students also receive gradPSYCH, the magazine of the American Psychological Association of Graduate Students (APAGS) and are automatically enrolled in APAGS. Undergraduate students who wish to join APAGS and receive gradPSYCH may do so for a small fee.
Once your fee is received and your application accepted, your subscriptions to online databases, American Psychologist, Monitor on Psychology, and other periodicals will be processed. Please allow 6–8 weeks for delivery of your first issues.
Affiliation is on a calendar year from January through December, so you will receive an invoice each year when it is time to renew your subscriptions and affiliation.
If your application is accepted between January 1 and August 31, your journal subscriptions will begin with the next available issue and run to the end of the calendar year. Any issues that have already been published in that year will automatically be sent (except previous issues of Monitor on Psychology).
If your application is accepted between September 1 and December 31, your American Psychologist and Monitor on Psychology subscriptions will begin with the next available issue and continue through the next calendar year. All journal subscriptions last for one calendar year only. |
