Registration Instructions

We recommend reading these instructions carefully prior to completing the Registration Form so that you know what information is necessary prior to filling out the multi-page online form.

ASP Members: Logging into your MyASP account is not required. Simply select the ASP Member Registration fee during registration. Only one member can register at a time. If you are a member but you are also signing up for additional registrations, simply add as many Non-Member Registrants as needed. Only one payment method will be allowed. If you cannot remember the email you use for Membership, or if you are a current member and you can not register, please contact us before you begin registration: membership@astrosociety.org or 415-715-1400.

JOIN THE ASP and join a community passionate about astronomy education and making a difference in science literacy. The ASP welcomes all astronomy researchers, scientists, students, enthusiasts, and educators from “stargazers” to “explorers” to participate in and support our mission via membership.

Important note to New or Returning Members: If you join the ASP or renew an outdated membership, please allow 24 hours prior to registering for the conference. Or you can contact us during the day at 415-715-1400 or by email: membership@astrosociety.org.

Scholarships: Please note: Scholarships are no longer available. The ASP is making funds available for Astro 101 instructors at community colleges and other colleges that do not have funds for professional development, as well as for teachers of high-school astronomy courses. Part-time (adjunct) college instructors are also eligible.  Priority will be given to those presenting at the conference. Only a limited number of scholarships are available. Those who apply but are not selected for a scholarship will be eligible for the ASP 2021 early-bird or advance registration rate depending on the date you applied.

Simply register and select "other payment" and you will receive directions. Purchase Orders for academic institutions are also accepted in the same way. Your registration(s) will not be valid until we receive payment.

Confirmation of Registration: At the end of the registration process all registrants will receive a confirmation email as well as the opportunity to print a copy of the submission data. A separate payment confirmation email will be sent to the bill payment email.
