Refunds
In general we will only offer refunds at our discretion in the following cases:
- If a presenter can not come to the conference due to emergent issues such as travel disruptions, documented illness, etc., but we can accommodate presentation virtually, a maximum 20% refund will be issued.
- If a regular attendee (non-presenter) can not come to the conference due to emergent issues, we may at our discretion offer no refund, a partial refund, or full refund at our discretion, influenced by the date of request and the nonrefundable costs incurred by the conference at that time.
- If a remote only attendee who is not presenting does not attend the conference, no refund will be given.
In any case, a refund would be at maximum the amount paid by the registrant; participants whose registrations were partially or fully covered by other sources such as ISLS hardship committee funds, the career workshops program, the student volunteer program, are eligible for at most the amount paid by the registrant. No refunds will be issued unless requested before the closing of the conference on June 14, 2024. The conference can not issue refunds related to housing, travel, or other non-registration costs outside our control.
