Student members can also apply for travel grants to attend the SoFiE annual conference in the years they are offered. These memberships have a one year term and can be renewed as long as the individual remains currently enrolled in an academic program as a full-time student. Student status is subject to verification and can only be claimed for a maximum of five years.
