Commuter registration does not include housing or paid parking. Register as a residential registrant if you are staying on campus during NCCWSL.

To begin, enter the registration site.  You will find Group Coordinator and individual (Student) registration options.
 

Group Coordinator Options: 

1. Group Coordinator Not Attending: If you are a group contact but will not attend in person, this option will allow you to enter student registrations and process the payment by credit card or check. 

1. Group Coordinator Attending Residential: If you are a group contact, will attend in person, and require housing arrangements, this option will allow you to enter student registrations and process the payment by credit card or check. 

1. Group Coordinator Attending Commuter: If you are a group contact and will attend in person but do not require housing arrangements, this option will allow you to enter student registrations and process the payment by credit card or check. 

Once Group Coordinator Option is chosen on the same page, select the number of Individual registration(s) needed (Residential or Commuter). 

When registering students, there will be several questions for each student; if you have this information (see registration questions below), please enter it into the system; if you do not, please do your best to complete them. A confirmation email will go to you and all the students you registered (if your student email is entered when registering). The confirmation to the student will notify them they have been registered for the event by a third party. It will ask students to go into the system via a personal link so the students can review or update registration questions/preferences.     

Once you are on the payment screen, you can pay via credit card or electronic check. The group Coordinator will receive a confirmation email with the details for all students registered. Each of your attendees will also receive an email with their confirmation and login information to update their registration information.
