Join Us

As the MERIT Institute continues to grow, we are transitioning to a dues-based membership structure. Our goal is to create a forum for the MERIT community to connect, collaborate, and consult. As a member, you will have opportunites for professional development, research, and networking as well to particpate in elections. We welcome your support and involvement.

To join, please complete an  application. You will be advised of next steps after your application is reviewed.  To participate in the Fall 2024 board member elections, please ensure your application is completed and dues are paid by November 1, 2024.

Membership Policy

Dues

Dues are $50 annually and will cover the remainder of 2024 and all of 2025. We don't want inability to pay dues to be an impediment. If it is, please reach out to us in confidentiality. Alternately, if you believe the mission of the MERIT Institute is worth supporting and are able to do so, please consider a donation in addition to your annual dues. Student members are exempt from dues.

Donate

Please help support us in our mission of promoting the use of MERIT. The MERIT Institute Association is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization (EIN: 99-1363949). Donations are tax-deductible.
