PSA Annual Membership and Registration/Conference Fee
PSA 2023 Fees and Information
PSA aims to keep membership and conference participation affordable. However, the costs to keep PSA going and hold the annual conference are rising. The PSA Council made some adjustments to fees for this year, where persons who are students or lower income faculty/other professionals pay low fees while faculty/other professionals in higher income brackets pay higher fees. In addition, the Council created a special fee for Emerita/Emeritus/Retired Sociologists.
| Membership only (persons who want the benefits of membership only may choose this fee) | Conference registration only (persons who want to attend the conference but are not presenting can choose this fee) | Full annual participation, including conference registration (required for all persons presenting at the conference) | |
