Thank you for your interest in The Junior League of Austin! We are excited to get to know you and introduce you to our League.

When can I begin the application process?

A membership interest form is available on our website. It will provide us with your contact information and allow us to send you important dates and information about the admissions process.

I have submitted the membership interest form. What happens next?

Once you have submitted your member interest form, be sure to regularly check your spam/junk folder for updates from The Junior League of Austin and our Admissions Committee.

What are your age requirements?

In order to qualify for the next Provisional class, you must be between the ages of 25 and 40 as of May 31 of the year your class will begin. For example, if you are applying for the 2024–2025 class, you must be at least 25 but no older than 40 years old before May 31, 2024. We do not offer waivers for this policy.

I live in Georgetown. Can I still apply?

Absolutely! If you live in Travis County or any of the surrounding counties, you qualify.

I may need to transfer my Provisional membership. What should I do?

Please send an email to membershipadvisor2@jlaustin.org for assistance.

I am currently a member of another Junior League and want to transfer my membership. Who do I contact?

Please contact your home League first to begin the process, and then send an email to membershipadvisor2@jlaustin.org.

I work full time and have a busy life/kids/family/dog. What is the time commitment required to be a member?

During your first year in the League, you will work on a variety of projects and get to know our League. Most consider the first year in our League as the most time intensive. There is a required number of volunteer hours and meetings. Each year is a little different, but you should expect to commit about 70 hours your first year.

I am trying to plan my wedding/vacation/root canal/life. Do you have the dates of all the mandatory meetings?

Our calendar runs June 1 to May 31, and a Provisional Chair is put into place in January. As soon as she gets her team together, they will begin mapping out the year. We will provide all the important dates to our new members as soon as we can.

What is a Provisional?

Our League has three classifications of members. If you are in your first year of membership, you are considered a Provisional member. Once you complete your first year successfully, you will become an Active member. At the age of 40 (but no later than the age of 45), you can elect to be a Sustaining member.

How often do you pay dues? Who can I contact if I have a question about dues?

Dues are paid annually and due by April 1. We can pay our dues online or by check. Our Finance Committee is responsible for collecting dues. The Membership Treasurer can be reached at membershiptreasurer@jlaustin.org.

I still have other questions. Is it ok to contact you?

Please contact us with any questions! We are here to help you and want to make this process as easy as possible. Our email address is admissions@jlaustin.org.
