REQUEST FOR FOREIGN VISAS
Some travelers entering the U.S. must obtain a visa and should apply for a visa as early as possible due to U.S. government increased security and entry requirements. Request a special letter of invitation by filling in this form.
For further questions, contact Stephanie Schember.
SUGGESTED DRESS

PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES

STAY AT THE HEADQUARTERS HOTEL
You are highly encouraged to stay at the University Guest House—the headquarters hotel. Not only will you be at the center of all the activities, but the convenience far outweighs any benefits from staying at other hotels. Please help your association meet its contracted obligations by staying at the headquarters hotel.
Shuttle service will be provided to/from the University Guest House to the Alumni House for the technical conference as well as for the Conference Dinner. Guests who stay at an alternative hotel will need to provide their own transportation to/from the conference events.
