There are two ways to join Mensa:
Supervised tests are available in most major cities in Australia and are held at appropriate times, as near as possible to your home address.
The Supervised Test incurs an administrative fee of $ 60 (standard) or $ 40 (concession). Fees must be paid in full, in advance. The session takes about two hours. It is necessary to bring a form of photo ID.
If you would like to book a place at a testing session, please download and complete the Supervised Test Request Form (PDF) and send with your cheque or money order, made out to Australian Mensa Inc., to:

Supervised Test
Suite 12, 8-12 Stafford St
Midland WA 6056
This office is staffed part-time by clerical staff only and is not a contact point for Mensa officers.
If paying by credit card the form can also be faxed to the number given on the form.
If claiming concession status, include proof, such as a photocopy of a pension card, student card or similar.
You will be contacted by the Proctor in your state with details of the date, time and location of the test.
You can qualify by showing evidence of a qualifying score in one of the many standard IQ tests we accept. If you can produce evidence of a score at or above the 98th percentile in one of these tests (listed below), we will assess that evidence and, if it is acceptable, offer you membership.
Our Psychologist's Form which you will need for presentation of your prior evidence, incurs an administrative fee of $ 40 (including GST).
If you would like a Psychologist's Form for your psychologist to complete, please complete the Psychologist Form Request (PDF) and send with your cheque or money order made out to Australian Mensa Inc to:

If paying by credit card the form can also be faxed to the number given on the form.
The Psychologist's Form must be completed by an accredited, practising psychologist in Australia (one registered with the appropriate state board) who certifies that he/she has administered a specific test to you on a specific date and that you have attained a specific score which is at or above the 98th percentile. Our own consulting psychologist will then ascertain that this test is one accepted by Mensa.
