Policies

Payment policy
Registrants may only pay online with a credit card.  Alternatively, registrants may pay by check provided a credit card is entered online as a guarantee; an invoice will be issued via e-mail to the registrant.  When a check is received by Asia Society, the credit card information will be deleted, and a receipt will be issued to the registrant via e-mail.  For check payments, the credit card on record will be charged if payment is not received by July 12, 2008.

Cancellation policy
If cancellation is received by June 6, 2008 midnight ET, the registrant will receive a full refund minus a $25 processing fee.  Between June 7 and June 13, 2008 midnight ET, half of the registration fee will be refunded. After June 13, 2008, we cannot honor any refunds, but will allow substitutions for a $25.00 administrative fee. If you or your team paid the registration fee by check, the fee will be returned within 30 days and the cancellation fee will be charged to the credit card on record.

Group discount policy
Groups of four or more people from the same school or district will be able to register for the conference at discounted rates.  If team members register before May 16, 2008 midnight ET, the per person registration fee will be $475.  Starting May 17, the registration fee will increase to $500 per team member.

If groups do not meet the minimum requirement of four team members—including if team member(s) cancel—each remaining team member will be charged the balance of the full registration fee ($525 by May 16, 2008 midnight ET; $550 thereafter).
