| What do I need to qualify? |
To order to join Mensa, you must score in the top 2% on any of
a number of standard intelligence tests. If you have
already taken such a test, you may submit the scores of that test to qualify.
Here is a list of
scores of some common test that you can submit as prior evidence to join Mensa.
|
| When
can I take a qualifying test? |
If you haven't previously taken an intelligence test, you can
take one of the tests sponsored by Mensa. We also offer non-standard tests for non-native
English speakers and other special situations. Tests are administered locally once
or more a month. Click here
for the dates of upcoming proctored tests.
|
| May I take a practice test? |
Yes, at-home practice tests are available for $18.
Click
here to be taken to the online order form. You may also try the
Mensa Workout quiz for fun.
|
| How can I find my prior evidence? |
You may be able to obtain your scores from the
appropriate testing agencies.
If the agency no longer has a copy of your scores, your high school or
college may have your scores as part of your official records.
|
| I have my prior evidence. How do I use it to join? |
Visit
this page to begin the process. Briefly, you'll submit an official copy of your
test scores and the $60 fee.
|
| What happens after I send in my prior evidence? |
If your prior evidence is accepted, the National Office will send
you an invitation to join and a bill for dues. You'll be able to
pay your dues online with a credit card or via direct debit to your bank account.
|
| How do I rejoin? |
If you have been a member of American Mensa in the past and would like to rejoin,
please contact the National Office at (817) 607-0060
or at
NationalOffice@americanmensa.org .
If you know your membership number, you can also
pay your dues online with a credit card or via direct debit to your bank account.
You do not have to take another test; you need simply pay your dues
for the current membership year.
|
| What can I expect after I pay my dues to join or rejoin? |
The National Office will process your payment and
send you a national Welcome Packet within two weeks of receipt of
payment. Depending on when in the month you paid your dues, it will
take 2-6 weeks from the date of payment processing before you hear
from the local group. Once a month, the National Office sends each local group a
list of new members, and that list arrives about the 10th of the following month.
Once the list arrives, a local group Welcome Packet containing the current
month's local newsletter and Membership Handbook will be sent to you.
