Registration Hours

Methods of Payment

All payments must be in Canadian funds.

Early registrations must be accompanied by payment in order to obtain the discounted rate.

The Federation accepts Visa, MasterCard, American Express, money orders and cheques for pre-conference registration.

Delegates registering on site may pay with Visa, MasterCard, American Express, money orders, cash or Interac. Unfortunately, the Federation will not accept cheques on site.

Community Participants

Every year, members of the community are invited to attend selected special events such as a Breakfast on Campus, the Book Fair, the Federation's annual Research in Society Lectures, as well as a number of sessions and keynote addresses planned by individual member associations and open to the public.

Community Participants Guide
The Community Participants Guide can be obtained at the registration site (at Carleton University) and will also be made available online during Congress.

Day passes
There are a limited number of day passes offered for each day of Congress, available for purchase at $15 each exclusively at the Congress registration desks in the Fieldhouse at Carleton University, between May 23-31. Day passes may not be reserved in advance; however, day passes may be purchased for advance days. Please check this page before traveling to campus to ensure that passes for your desired day(s) are available. For admittance to the Book Fair, no day pass is required.

International Delegates

Every year, the Congress attracts a considerable number of delegates and guest speakers from around the world. Before you register, please be sure to check if a visa is required for your entry to Canada.

Citizenship and Immigration Canada provides a list of countries for which visa restrictions apply, as well as all other pertinent information you may require before making any travel plans. Give yourself plenty of time as the entire application process can take several months!

Please also note that the registration confirmation you receive from us does not represent an invitation to attend the Congress for visa purposes. If you have indeed been invited by one of the participating associations, please contact it directly to obtain an official letter. The Federation is unable to send letters of confirmation of any kind other than the registration confirmation automatically generated and sent, by email only, once your payment has been processed.
