Joining AEGEE-Leiden

Want to have fun and travel a lot?

Become a member of AEGEE-Leiden!

What is AEGEE-Leiden?

AEGEE-Leiden is a fun student association, which belongs to the European association AEGEE-Europe (see below). AEGEE-Leiden not only offers a lot of fun in Leiden, but also offers trips to other AEGEE locals in Europe. AEGEE members are known for their interest in new people, ideas, and cultures. They are interested in you!

AEGEE-Leiden has approximately 200 members and has been growing steadily in the past few years. Because of the free character of AEGEE (no obligations) it is easy to combine your AEGEE membership with a membership of another student association. Many AEGEE-Leiden members are members of other student associations too. AEGEE-Leiden does not have year clubs or anything of the kind (it is one fun group) so you can become a member in whatever year of your studies you are. In every introduction period (see below) there are freshmen as well as older students. It is never too late to join!

What do you do at AEGEE-Leiden?

You won’t have obligations in AEGEE, you can make your membership into whatever you want. Apart from the weekly social drinks of AEGEE-Leiden, many other activities and trips are organised. There is an activity every week, which can vary from bowling to kart racing to many other activities. In this way you get to know the other AEGEE members. To get an idea of the AEGEE activities: take a look at the activities calendar on this website!

Aside from the activities, you can go away for the weeked with AEGEE a few times a year. In the fall there is the members weekend, where the whole of AEGEE-Leiden comes together to get to know the new members. In the spring there is the members weekend abroad – each year we explore a different European city! Many different activities are also organised, such as a hitchhiking contest to Paris. If you still want to travel more, you can always visit other AEGEE locals in Europe. There is no lack of travel opportunities!
More about AEGEE-Europe.

Introduction period

AEGEE-Leiden has an introduction period for its new members. What should you expect? A tough hazing? Not at all! The introduction period AEGEE-style is very fun and varied.
During the first six weeks of the academic year there are two introduction activities each week, which give you an idea of what you can expect from AEGEE: so not only the social drinks, but also good food, lasergaming, watching movies – there are new activities each year.
This period will be concluded in style with the ultimate AEGEE integration during the members weekend! The programme of this weekend is different each year, but there always are good parties and AEGEE-sangria!
No activities are compulsory, so apart from missing fun, you can decide for yourself in which activities you want to participate.

Active members

Members who want to actively contribute to the organisation of AEGEE-Leiden are always welcome – more and more new members decide to join a committee. To get an idea of what AEGEE-Leiden is engaged in, take a look at the committee pages. You might get an idea of where you want to make yourself useful! AEGEE-Leiden is also open to new ideas. Maybe you can set up a new committee!
Do you have an exceptional talent for organisation? You might end up on the board.

Come see us!

The weekly social drinks of AEGEE-Leiden take place every Tuesday night from 21:30 onwards at “De Branderij” at Middenweg 7 in Leiden. You are always welcome to get to know us here.
You can also visit us at the AEGEE-Leiden office at Plexus. There’s always someone here Tuesdays to Fridays from 15:00 to 17:00.

Becoming a member

Not totally convinced yet to become a member? The contribution of AEGEE-Leiden is only €37,50 a year! That is only a bit less then €3,20 a month; so you shouldn’t be hesitant about joining. There are two times during the year when many people join AEGEE-Leiden: in September during or right after the ElCid week (TIP: join before the introduction period or you’ll miss a lot of fun and you’ll miss getting to know AEGEE-Leiden) and in March/April during the Summer University promotion. But you are more than welcome to become a member throughout the rest of the year.

Joining is simple: download the registration form, fill it out and sign it, and send it to the address above. You can also drop it off at the weekly drinks or on weekdays at the office at Plexus (see above for details).

As always when you want to join an association: Read the statutes. You can find them here: Statutes AEGEE-Leiden and Statutes AEGEE-Europe.
