Can any one tell me of any organizations I could join that is geared towards those who are interested in becoming mathematicians? I know of the MAA and AMS already but I was just curious if there were any more I didn't know about. Thanks in advance.

Another big one is SIAM, which definitely has a different perspective from the AMS/MAA.

There is a website with a large list of Mathematical Organizations, Associations, and Societies:

http://www.ams.org/mathweb/mi-sao.html

What I would recommend is not necessarily looking at going for the "big ones", which happen to be AMS and MAA, but looking for ones that match your interests, or searching within the big ones for a Special Interest Group that matches your interest.  

I've probably found more side organizations that I'm not a member of, but were very interesting.  Like the Association for Symbolic Logic or the Kurt Godel Society.

But you might find your niche somewhere else ;).
