SWPA States

You may create a member or a non-member profile. 

By creating a member profile (regular, associate, or student) and paying dues, you will be able to submit an abstract (or be a co-author on an abstract) for the SWPA portion of the convention program or you may submit an abstract (or be a co-author on an abstract)  for any of the adjunct organizations that meets at the SWPA convention (SCPA, SAMR, Psi Chi and TPA). 

Persons with non-member profiles may submit (or be a co-author on an abstract) for any of the adjunct organizations. (Check with the adjunct organizations for any membership requirements for submission to their part of the program.)

All persons who wish to submit to (or be a co-author on) any part of the convention program must have a current profile so that they are in the database.  Non-member profiles are cleared following the convention each year.  Member profiles are maintained as long as a member is dues current within the most recent three years.

SWPA Members: There are two steps to creating a profile and becoming a new member of SWPA:

  1. Create a login / password and complete the online membership profile

  2. Submit your dues payment. After you login, you can pay your dues online using a credit card (prefered method) or you can mail a check to our Secretary-Treasurer.

If you wish to pay both membership dues and convention registration at one time (prior to the abstract deadline), then you can receive a "bundle" discount and save $5 on your dues.  Alternatively, you can pay dues prior to abstract submission and pay registration later, or if you do not plan to attend the convention, you only pay dues and do not need to pay registration at all.

Note: any registration paid less than 3 weeks prior to the opening of the convention will have a $15 late registration fee added.


Non-Members: There is one step to creating a profile and becoming a non-member.

  1. Create a login / password and complete the online non-membership profile

You may pay your convention registration at any point, although any registration paid less than 3 weeks prior to the opening of the convention will have a $15 late registration fee added.
