As we published earlier this year, the European University Sports Association (EUSA) besides having the national university sports bodies as its Members, also offers possibilities of Universities and other Organisations to join as Associated Members. This chance and all the granted benefits with it, was already taken by 19 Universities, coming from 6 countries. 

EUSA Executive Committee awarded the status of EUSA Associated Member to these universities temporarily, until finally they will be approved by the EUSA General Assembly in October.
To join as an associated member there are no fees, but there are several benefits and advantages.

The Universiteis, which are granted the Status of the EUSA Associated Member may enjoy the following benefits:
a. Become a member of EUSA Universities Club
b. Participate at EUSA Events under a lower Entry Fee (as determined by the EUSA Executive Committee) for their students and teams
c. Priority in selection of the organisers of EUSA Sport and Educational Events

For other organisations there are a few conditions to be fulfilled, so they can be granted the Status of EUSA Associated Member:
1. Contribute to the promotion and development of university sport
2. Accept the mission of EUSA as stated in the EUSA Statutes

In the following days we will be presenting each of the universities, that so far have been temporairly granted the status of an Associated members.
