Laboratory Registration

The last day to register for a laboratory is August 29. 

ACVS reserves the right to cancel any laboratory that does not meet the minimum number of required registrations set by ACVS on or before August 29. If a laboratory is canceled, all registrants for the canceled laboratory will be notified via email no later than September 6, and all paid registration fees will be refunded.

Laboratory registrants are advised not to make airline and hotel reservations until after September 6 to ensure their selected laboratory is not canceled. ACVS will not reimburse for travel in the case of a cancellation.

All laboratory registration fees must be paid in full by August 29 to guarantee a seat in the desired laboratory. After August 29, all unpaid seats will be released and offered to other participants.

See Laboratories for rates.
