You may pay for the regristration fees via credit card or by check or wire, however, there is an additional $50 service fee (per individual participant registration) if you choose the check or wire payment option (see the information below). The participant fee covers the conference abstracts, a conference program, the reception, banquet, all break refreshments, and a two-year membership in USACM and IACM. The student fee does not include the membership dues.

Late (on-site) 700 450

Payment by Check or Wire

If you choose to pay by check or wire, there is an additional $50 service fee. Note, if you are paying for more than one person, you must include an additional $50 for each person covered on the check (or wire). Using a check or wire you pay:

Also, the status of whether you are "Early", "Regular", or "Late" depends upon the date when the funds are received, not when they are sent. If you choose this option, your registration will be marked unpaid until the funds are deposited on our side. If you send a check, please make it out to "The United States Association for Computational Mechanics", and mail it to:

Note: Usually, the swift code is the same as the IBAN number.
Note: Only on-site registration is possible after July 15. In this case, your abstract will by shifted to the end of whatever session you are participating in, and it will probably not be listed in the conference booklet.
Note: Domestic wire transfers are usually free of charge.

In any case, please ensure that the total amount that is received by the conference AFTER ALL FEES ARE SUBTRACTED equals the expected registration amount.
