Graduate Membership of the Scottish Artists Union is open to final year undergraduate/college students, post-graduate students and graduates. The fee is paid by a one off payment of £39.00 which covers the first 12 months of your Union membership.
Membership at the 'Graduate' rate will be for 12 months - this opportunity is only open for the first year of a new membership to the Union (a graduate applicant cannot be an existing Scottish Artists Union member).
As a Graduate Member of the Union you must still be able to meet a minimum of two membership criteria as an Associate Member, or a minimum of four membership criteria as a Full Member.
At the end of the 12 months your membership will be reassessed regarding your eligibility for Full or Associate membership of the Union, and regular terms and subscription fees will apply.
Throughout your membership you benefit from:
Free Product and Public Liability Insurance - for situations out with your place of study.
Free Professional Indemnity Cover for situations out with your place of study.
1/2 an hour Free Legal Advice from Thompsons solicitors
