New graduate membership is free
Fees for new graduate members are waived from graduation until the following 30 June and may be waived as a recent graduate beyond this. If a membership fee applies MIPS will send written notice before you commit to membership or renewal of membership.
By using this form you are updating to free new graduate membership, but if in the future any membership fee or other liability to MIPS is in arrears for more than one month, you shall then cease to be entitled to any benefits of membership from MIPS from the date when such membership fee or other liability fell due. MIPS may, by resolution, cancel my membership if I do not comply with MIPS’ Constitution, or if my conduct should be deemed to be prejudicial to the interests of MIPS.
Duty of disclosure
You should read and understand your duty of disclosure and ensure that the information you provide is accurate. If during the period of your membership, your circumstances change and the information you provided to MIPS is no longer accurate, you must promptly inform MIPS of the new information.
Permission to provide information
By completing this form, you authorise MIPS to obtain claims and any other information it requires from your previous Insurers/Indemnifiers to confirm the information you have provided. You also consent to MIPS providing my personal information to its agents, legal representatives and other service providers who may need access to your personal information in order to process your application for insurance cover and who may be engaged in the defence of any claim made by you.

The information requested in this form is required by MIPS for its business operations. By completing this form you consent to the collection, use, storage and disclosure of any personal information as outlined in our Privacy Statement.
