Registering for Level 1 Exam in Dec'11 Question experience, university, created, account, because

whew1110

Hi,

I am a full-time student at an university in U.S (senior year). There are a few things I get confuse at first-time registering for the exam in Dec'11. Any help would be appreciated.

1) I have created an account on CFAI, and apply for Regular Membership. In the process of registering, I am not sure how to fill in the Work Experience Form because it said Regular Membership require at lease 48 months of experience and there are no option for student. Should I just put my university name on and continue?

2) After registering, CFAI requires 2 sponsors who are - "a regular member" and "your supervisor". I really don't know who a supervisor for a college student should be. It doesn't explain well in CFAI website.

3) Also, I also need to apply to a society which is said " have to be same as your sponsor's". Is there anyway to choose a society that I want rather than choosing the same as my sponsor?

Hope that anyone experience this before could help me. Thanks !

I am pretty sure I am eligible for enrolling CFA Level 1 as a senior-year student in college.

Are you sure you are enrolling for the exam? People who have passed the exams apply for regular membership which requires 4 years of experience, sponsors etc.
