Housing Fee (Loyola University Francis Hall)

Staying in Loyola University's Francis Hall is recommended for attendees from outside Chicago. While it is open to all conference attendees, it is not required to stay on campus. Those who prefer to commute daily to Loyola would not select the Housing Fee when registering for the conference. $100 is for 3 nights of housing per person. See the Location & Housing tab for more details on room types. The number of available beds is limited to 300. The popular principle applies: first come, first served.
