Payment Process
After completing the initial registration process, schools will be asked to complete their payment by sending a check or submitting a domestic or international wire transfer.
To process payments, a school should collect all fees from delegates and pay once. Once payment has been received, the designated school advisor will receive a final notice of registration confirmation.
Payment must be received upon specified conference deadlines to secure your delegation's spots in MITMUNC. Failure to complete this process will result in a delegation's spots being released to waitlist due to high demand.
Refunds cannot be processed after payment unless conference is cancelled.
Financial Aid
If payment of conference fees is a barrier to participation to MITMUNC, you may apply for financial aid to assist in reduction of conference fees by filling in the financial aid section of the registration form.

Miscellaneous
Visa Letters
If a letter of invitation from MITMUNC is required for a visa application in order to attend our conference, a delegation may request one from the MITMUNC XI Secretariat directly by email.
Single Delegates
We recommend students contact their school's Model United Nations club to foster interest in attending MITMUNC as the school's delegation rather as an individual delegate. If interest is limited or there is no such club, you must find a faculty advisor (school teacher or parent), and apply as a single delegate. Also consider starting your school's Model United Nations club!
Food & Meals
MITMUNC will not provide meals for its attending delegates. There are breadth of restaurants and dining options available at Kendall Square, near conference venues.
