https://community.isc2.org/t5/Become-A-Member/ISC2-CISSP-Membership-Question/m-p/85708#M1632 <P>Hello,</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>So I just passed my CISSP exam yesterday! I was wondering is there a time limit for me to apply to be an Associate or Member? I have my degree/certs and I would hit my 4 year mark of qualified experience December 7th.&nbsp;</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>So I was wondering if I should applied to become and Associate right now and pay the $50? Then December 7th when I apply to be a member and once it gets approved would I pay a differentiated fee or the same fee to become a member? Basically should I just wait until December 7th or no?</P> Thu, 20 Nov 2025 15:08:29 GMT Newguyen 2025-11-20T15:08:29Z https://community.isc2.org/t5/Become-A-Member/ISC2-CISSP-Membership-Question/m-p/85708#M1632 <P>Hello,</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>So I just passed my CISSP exam yesterday!
