Payment

The Medieval Institute can accept Visa, MasterCard, and Discover for credit card payments, but we cannot process American Express or electronic transfer of funds.

Only checks or money orders in US dollars made payable to the Medieval Institute are accepted. Any checks or money orders sent in currencies other than US dollars will be returned. All charges are due at the time of registration. Receipts are issued at the Congress.

Checks and money orders made out in an incorrect amount and illegible and incorrect credit card numbers hold up the registration process. Please sign your check and write in the current date. Post-dated checks cannot be accepted.

All who attend sessions, give papers or preside over sessions, or take part in panels, visit the exhibits, or otherwise attend the Congress and participate in its activities must register. The Congress Committee reserves the right to deny future participation in the Congress to those who do not register properly and further reserves the right to refer to the university’s collection services any unpaid bills.

Late Registration

Online late registration is closed. On-site registration is available in the Eldridge-Fox lobby. All late registrants, including on-site registrants pay a $50.00 late fee. Please note that on-campus housing is very seldom available to on-site registrants. Alternate housing arrangements should be made before arrival. Any rooms booked to on-site registrants will be billed at the single rate, although two attendees who want to share a room may do so.
