FAQS

Is my registration/ticket transferable?

All attendee registrations must match the ticket. If you would like to transfer your registration, you must cancel the first one, then register the second attendee online. If a payment transfer needs to be made because payment was made by check, you must contact the Senate Office directly with a written notification at events [at] asccc.org.

What is the cancellation/refund policy?

  • Payment is required prior to entering an Academic Senate event.
  • Please remember that the last day (June 9th, 2021) to cancel your registration without penalty is always posted on each event's webpage, and is listed in each confirmation email.
