There are 2 types of membership:
1) School Membership is for school student governments or councils, and dues are based on the school’s enrollment (see chart below).
2) Non-voting Associate Membership is not available to schools, but is appropriate for offices, businesses, and organizations whose mission includes supporting advocacy for youth and leadership development. Associate Members may include regional advisor offices, youth leadership organizations, and other entities that wish to partner with MASC.
We encourage applying for membership as soon as possible. The application process for MASC membership is now exclusively online. Click on the appropriate link below to be taken to the new online application to begin the process. You will enter pertinent information on that form, then submit it electronically. An email acknowledging receipt of your application will be sent immediately. It will also provide you with an application link and further instructions to complete the process.
