Convention Refund Policy

All refund requests for the convention registration fee must be made in writing by e-mail to [email protected]. Please add the subject line: Convention Registration Refund Request.

For 2026: Refund requests received on or before September 12 will be refunded 100% of your registration fee, less a $20 administrative fee ($10 administrative fee for graduate students) to cover the cost of processing. Refund requests received between September 13 and October 12 will be refunded 50% of your registration fee, less a $20 administrative fee ($10 administrative fee for graduate students). Refunds will not be available for cancellations made after October 12, or for no-shows. All refunds will be issued after the annual convention.

We are mindful of travel uncertainties, especially for our international participants who must obtain a visa to enter the US. We will offer full refunds for those who could not obtain visas or were denied entry at the U.S. border.
