Student Membership

Student Membership is designed for students at the undergraduate or graduate level who are interested in the child life profession. To obtain the discounted rate, the student must email, fax (301-881-7092), or mail ("Attn: Membership") proof that they are currently enrolled as a full-time student (9 or more credits, unless full-time is otherwise defined by their institution). Acceptable forms of proof include one of the following: (1) A letter from a registrar or internship supervisor; (2) An unofficial copy of a college transcript with information regarding the current semester’s enrollment; or (3) A copy of the student's current class schedule that indicates enrollment as a full-time student.  


Important Note for New Student Members:

Your membership will be considered "pending" until proof of your current full-time student status is received and approved by CLC. Benefits will not be activated until CLC receives and approves student status.
