The NPOC19  leadership team has endeavored to keep the conference registration fees affordable and low as compared to conferences of similar size and scope. Our aim is for everyone who wishes to attend NPOC19 to be able to do so. ​Early Bird registration rates (effective through February 8th at 11:59 pm EST) are significantly discounted from the regular conference registration rates. ​We are hosting all conference events at AUWCL instead of at a hotel. We have compressed the conference into three days instead of the usual four. We also are actively and aggressively seeking significant financial support from potential donors, including law schools, law firms, publishers, legal organizations, and corporations.
 
We understand, however, that NPOC19's deeply discounted registration rates may still be out of reach of some colleagues and students who wish to attend the conference. NPOC19 has established  a modest scholarship fund for the benefit of colleagues and students who otherwise would be unable to attend. NPOC19 is offering a very limited number of scholarships that will provide 100% or 50% waivers of the conference registration fee. We also may have limited funding available for grants to cover part of the expenses associated with travel and lodging. Because of the scarcity of these funds, we urge only those colleagues and students who would be unable to attend NPOC19 without such a scholarship to apply. 

Please complete and submit this form by no later than Noon EST, Friday, February 1st. We will not consider applications after that date.
 
The Selection Committee will notify applicants of its decision by noon on February 7th so as allow time for registration at the Early Bird rates. If you have any questions, please consult with NPOC19 National Advisory Committee Chair Prof. Adrien Wing at adrien-wing@uiowa.edu or NPOC19 Host/Planning Committee Chair Tony Varona at avarona@wcl.american.edu.

A note on privacy and confidentiality:  Your application will be reviewed in the strictest of confidence by a small subset of NPOC19 leadership team members (from the National Advisory Committee and the main Host/Planning Committee) and only for the purpose of selecting the scholarship recipients.
