Cancellations, Refunds, and Transfers of Registration

Registration cancellations for the 2026 Autism Conference received by midnight (EST) October 17, 2025, will be subject to a 10% fee. Cancellations received by midnight (EST) November 17, 2025, will be subject to a 25% fee. Cancellations received by midnight (EST) December 17, 2025, will be subject to a 50% fee. Cancellations received on or after December 18, 2025, will not be eligible for a refund, but registration may be transferred to another registrant or a future event. Cancellation is NOT subject to a cancellation fee if transferred to a future event. Please remember, if transferring registration to a future event, you must maintain a valid and current membership for the year of the future event. If, for example, you wish to transfer a 2025 Annual Convention registration to the 2026 Annual Convention, you must maintain the same membership type and renew your membership for 2026 – at the time of transfer. Any presenter (including poster presenters) needing to cancel must communicate with the convention department

 

In the unlikely event that the conference/convention is canceled in its entirety, all registrants will receive a full refund of their registration fees.

Please note that in the case of extenuating circumstances (e.g., a global pandemic), we reserve the right to pivot to an alternative conference format (e.g., virtual or hybrid). If such a change occurs, registrants will be notified promptly, and adjustments to registration fees, if applicable, will be made.
