There is a required paper submission fee for each paper submitted.  This fee is non-refundable, even if the paper is not accepted and even if the author(s) subsequently cannot attend the conference (and therefore cannot present the paper). There is a two paper limit on submissions.

The paper submission fees are as follows (per paper, 2 paper limit, non-refundable):

     Submitted Before October 6:  Current Members $30 each paper; Non-members $50 each paper
     Submitted between October 7 and November 3:  Current Members $45 each paper;  Non-members $65

Those submitting papers can become members at the same time as submission (and immediately avail themselves of the reduced member rate) by paying the appropriate membership fee along with the submission fee.  Graduate students participating in the conference can obtain a student membership for $25 and then pay the member rates for both submission and conference registration .  Students should provide proof of status at the time of submission and/or registration.

NOTES:  Submission date will be determined from the postmark, fax, or e-mail date.  Those submissions dated by the deadlines indicated above will be considered to have been submitted on time.  There is only one submission fee per paper even if there are two or more authors.  There is no paper submission fee for papers submitted as part of completely organized sessions (however all participants still must pay the conference registration fee).  A completely organized session is one which has been completely constructed in advance, and generally consists of three papers, discussants, and a session chair.  Please see Information for Session Organizers for more information about organized sessions.

If you volunteer to serve as a discussant you may deduct $15 from the paper submission fees above.
(Note: To receive the deduction, you must list JEL codes for the areas in which you wish to discuss.  Please also indicate if you will be willing to discuss more than one paper, and/or if you are willing also to chair one or more sessions.)  Please note that there is no discount for only chairing a session and that the discount applies only to paper submission fees not conference registration fees.

Conference Registration Fees

All participants in the annual conference are expected to pay the conference registration fee.  This includes chairs and discussants, coauthors of papers being presented, and those who have been invited to be part of an organized session.  Please note that there is an additional $15 charge for on-site registration.

The conference registration fees are as follows:
           Current Members $45 per person in advance; $60 on site
           Non-members $95 per person in advance; $110 on site

One can become a member at the same time as one registers for the conference by indicating that the payment of $95 is for both membership dues (includes Eastern Economic Journal subscription) and conference registration.

TO BE LISTED IN THE PRINTED PROGRAM THE CONFERENCE REGISTRATION FEE MUST BE PAID BY JANUARY 19, 2007 (IT IS ARE THEREAFTER NON-REFUNDABLE).

Note:  Graduate students participating in the conference can obtain a student membership for $25 and then pay the conference registration fee of $45, reducing the cost to $70.  Please provide proof of status at the time of registration.
