Cancellations and Refunds  for National College Fair Programs

All changes and cancellations regarding any National College Fair program must be submitted in writing to NACAC Customer Service (customerservice@nacacnet.org) or by submitting this form. All refunds and credits are subject to a $50 processing fee. Registrations that are canceled or switched to another fair are subject to approval and are assessed cancellation and additional processing fees (including difference between early-bird and regular registration rates). These fees must be collected prior to registration changes being processed.

If a National College Fair program is canceled by circumstances beyond the control of NACAC – such as acts of God, war, government regulations, disaster, civil disorder, or curtailment of transportation facilities – to the extent that such circumstances make it illegal or impossible to allow the National College Fair program to occur, the registrant agrees that they will not hold NACAC liable for the cancellation and/or disruption of the program. If a National College Fair program is canceled, the registrant agrees to hold NACAC and its agents blameless and to accept the credit policy agreed upon by the NACAC Board of Directors.

Registration Deadlines and Refund Policy

The deadline to register as an exhibitor is two business days before each fair (both in-person and virtual) or when all spots are filled.
