To see the prorationing schedule, download the *PDF application form. You can still join on-line, the system will automatically calculate your prorated dues.

NEW IN 2006: MCBC is now extending free membership to full-time students. You can qualify for the free membership so long as you are a full-time student. When you apply, please provide the name of your educational institution. We would also prefer to see an email contact with an *.edu extension, although that is not entirely necessary.

If you are joining as a corporate member any time after July 1, you will pay the regular dues amount and your membership will extend until December of the following year.

Corporate Membership is for individuals who work for businesses with an interest in China.
