The 2024 Conferences on Student Success in Higher Education offers special registration types to individuals and institutions as a part of their participation in certain NASPA programs.

Individuals, institutions, and organizations that identify as any of the registration types below will receive separate communication regarding conference registration. Please do not send an email requesting a passcode.

  • Exhibitor/Sponsor
  • FS/FgF Cohort Institution
  • First-gen Center Partner

The one day registration type is ideal for presenters and attendees that are local to the Anaheim, CA venue location. Registrants will be asked to identify which conference date (June 23 - June 25, 2024) they plan to attend.

  • One Day Registration
Group Registration

To receive one invoice for multiple registrations, you must complete all fields in this group registration form. Please note that we can only offer a single invoice for groups of between six and twenty registrants from a single institution or organization. Groups of five or fewer must register separately and will receive individual invoices. Groups of twenty-one or more will need to submit multiple copies of the form linked above. For example: If an institution aims to register 27 staff members; 1-20 will be submitted through the form and 21-27 will be submitted through the same form separately.

 

People who have already registered outside of the group cannot be added to the group registration and will have to pay for their registrations separately. No refunds will be given to individuals who completed their registrations separately and now desire to be added to a group invoice.
