Student Membership is open to anyone aged 18 years or over studying for a course at BA level or below who has never previously been a member of WGGB. Students who are members of university or college writing clubs, groups or societies, but not studying for a degree or course in creative writing, are still eligible to join. The cost of Student Membership is at the discounted rate of £30 per year (compared to £198 per year for Full Membership) and is paid in one single annual payment by credit/debit card or PayPal. Students who don’t meet these criteria or who wish to pay by monthly instalments may join WGGB as a Candidate Member, which offers an enhanced package of benefits including free contract vetting, and support and advice from our experienced staff (this costs £108 per year or £9 per month).
