Please read carefully, then follow the link below to the 4S Members site.
If you submitted a paper or are listed as a presenter or author on an accepted paper, you already have an account with the registration site. Please avoid creating a duplicate account–it will only cause confusion and delay. If you don’t know your login credentials, use the ‘forgot password’ link. When you update your password, your user name will be displayed on the confirmation screen.
Unless other arrangements are made with the 4S New Orleans conference team, you must be registered for the conference by June 30th to be included in the program.
Early rates apply through midnight, EDT, April 26. All fees are listed and transacted in $US.
This year, registration rates are broken down by income rather than occupational status.
| Salary < $40,000 | $40,000 - $70,000 | Salary > $70,000 USD | |
| Member | |||
| Early | $150 | $225 | $350 |
| Regular | $250 | $325 | $450 |
| Non-Member | |||
| Early | $250 | $325 | $450 |
| Regular | $350 | $425 | $550 |
If you do not see the member rates offered after you log in, you may elect to join 4S before registering. Use the ‘Membership’ link in the menu. (Note: If you see the message Your membership is current and does not expire when you log in, it means you do not have an active 4S membership. The message is referring to your Guest Membership in the web site. Apologies for the confusing language.)
Invited guests and people who are NOT LISTED IN THE PROGRAM will be able to purchase day registration tickets from the registration desk at the venue for $80 US per day.
You can pay online by Visa or Mastercard immediately upon registering, or you may select the bill me option and print/download an invoice to be processed by your institution. Subsequent payment may be made online by logging back into your account to find the invoice, or may be paid by bank transfer. 4S strongly prefers online payment upon registration, for obvious reasons: pursuing people for payment is a nuisance for all involved. If you need information on how to send a bank transfer, contact webmaster@4sonline.org.
Instead of a formal banquet this year, each evening (Tuesday through Saturday) we will hold a reception with complimentary drinks and canapés for all registered participants. The receptions Wednesday through Saturday night will follow the plenary sessions. Make sure to arrive early to register Tuesday evening and enjoy that night’s reception too!
Through June 30, cancellations will be honored with a full refund. During July, cancellations will be accepted with a refund of 50%. Any cancellations after August 1 will not be refunded. If you must cancel, please notify the meeting secretariat [4s2019nola@gmail.com], the 4S administrator [webmaster@4sonline.org], and (if known) your session chair.
Due to the fact that 4S 2019 will be taking place during hurricane season in New Orleans, we encourage conference attendees to purchase travel insurance. More information on what kind of insurance to buy can be found here: Hurricane Insurance Review.
More information on travel grants can be found here [https://www.4s2019.org/travel-grants/]. Applications for 2019 travel grants have closed.
4S has a small grant program to support childcare at the conference through reimbursement. See this page.
