This panel is where you'll see a discussion of the current step in the registration process. Check here as you proceed to each new step.

The "Estimated fees" panel that's just above this will automatically update as you make changes. Of course, this may not be accurate until you've entered all your information, but it does give you a view of the current state of things.

Before you start, read through all the information on the "Register" tab of this site. Read the pages under that tab, such as Overview, Room Types, Fees, Things to Know, and Questions and Answers.

The Primary Contact is the address to which correspondence will be sent; an adult in the household being registered. A confirmation email will be sent to the Email address entered here, so please enter it carefully and be sure to check for email at that address after you submit your registration. This email address will also be used by the registrars for any follow-up correspondence, so please advise the registrars of any changes.

We need Responsible Person information if you are a high school student who is attending the conference without a parent in attendance; you must provide their name and contact information (or their registration ID) in the space near the bottom of this page (see Q&A #6). The responsible person must agree to their role in advance, must be at least 21 years of age, and must be in attendance at the conference the entire time you (the student) are there. The Primary Contact at the top of this page may be different; the Primary Contact should be whoever is responsible for your fees (for example, your parents).

If you are registering as a family and are bringing anyone under age 18 with you, you are assuming full responsibility for those minors. See Q&A #27.

Step 2 is where you will provide information on each of the individuals you are registering.

First you will select the number of people you're registering. The form will then expand to allow you to enter all the required information. You'll probably need to scroll down to see everything.

Next comes information which is common to the entire group you're registering.

Provide the "Home Congregation" which applies to most of the people in the group. This can be changed for each individual below.

Use "Comments and Requests Applicable to Multiple People in this Group" to provide information in common to several people. For example, you might enter "Our family would like to be roomed near John and Mary Smith of Topeka KS." You may type as much as you like here. Even if your text appears to overflow the space, it is still being recorded.

"Relationship to primary contact" is how this individual is related to Person 1. For a married couple with two children, Person 1 would be "myself," Person 2 would be "spouse," and Persons 3 and 4 would be "child."

"Birthdate", including year, is requested for all applicants, including adults. For a discussion of why we're asking for this, please see Q&A #21.

"Entering Grade" should indicate the grade a student will be entering in the fall of 2012.

"Name for badge" is the full name (first and last) you want to have on your name badge and door sign. If your name is "Robert Smith" and you want to be called "Bob," fill in "Bob Smith." The system will pre-fill your name from above, but you can change it however you like.

Note that we'll copy this directly from your entry here to your badge, so please don't use ALL UPPER CASE.

"Mobile phone:" We are considering printing cell phone numbers in the Friend Finder directory. If you would like that published to everyone attending the conference, fill it in here. Leave this blank if you don't want your personal number to be listed in the Friend Finder.

We hope to print congregation names on name badges. Use "Congregation to be printed on badge" to tell us how you want this to look.

If one or people are communting or otherwise staying off-campus, select that under "Where is this person staying?" No housing fees will be charged. Meal and program fees still apply.

"Attending part time or full time?" is to inform us if this person is attending only part time. A place to select the days they will attend will be shown. The system calculates meal and program fees based on this. No program fees are charged for Saturday or Sunday.

"Comments" is the place to make roommate requests or to provide other information the registrars might find useful.

"Special needs" is to make requests for individuals who have physical challenges, such as problems climbing stairs. Note that Indiana Wesleyan has some dorms with elevators.

If you need special equipment (such as a rented wheelchair), indicate the room requirements here, but also be sure to contact the appropriate people as  discussed on the "Things to Know" page.

Here you request your rooms. All beds are twin size (single). In general, everyone age four and over must have a bed.

There are two ways one can be roomed, and they are fundamentally different:
-	As an individual - someone requesting a bed. This is similar to the way everyone was roomed in years past. Single adults, high school, and college students will generally use this area, as will children who need beds outside their family suite. "Dorm Room SHARED" means you will be sharing a room with a roommate (required for high school); "Dorm Room SINGLE" means you're paying to have a room to yourself (but sharing a bathroom).
-	In a family suite. Indiana Wesleyan University allows a discount for people with the same permanent address who share a suite.

People who are in a family suite but have a different permanent address from the others in the suite are not included in the family fee for the suite, so must pay an additional fee equivalent to the "Dorm Room Shared" rate. The number of such people (if any) should be shown in the "In a Family Suite, but Family Discount does not apply" entry. Several examples of this are discussed on the questions and answers page. Please provide more information in the "Rooming Instructions" blank. Note that such people may register and pay this fee separately from the family registering the suite; both forms should then have details in "Rooming Instructions".

A limited number of four-bedroom dorm suites and two- and three-bedroom lodge suites are available. They'll be reserved in general on a first-come, first-served basis, with preference given to families who need to have small children together, or who would otherwise need to split into multiple dorm rooms.

The lodge suites are considered premium housing, providing a living room, microwave oven, and a refrigerator. Meal fees still apply.

Review the information on this page, especially checking any errors and warnings (red text). You may use the Navigation Buttons at the top of the form to go back to previous steps as necessary and make corrections.

If you have any serious errors, such as leaving out someone's name, the system show that in red and will hide the"Register!" button. When all errors have been cleared the "Register!" button will appear.

When you are satisfied, click "Register!" at the bottom of the form. Please be patient, as your computer will pause for several seconds as it performs a final review of your information, and saves it to the database. You will be shown a confirmation page, and both you and the registrars will be sent a confirmation email. Changes after you click "Register!" can only be made through discussion with the registrars - you cannot come back here to edit your information.

Your confirmation page and email will have a registration ID number. That number is unique to you, and will be used for payment and future communication with the registrars.
