Information for International Attendees
Northwest Model United Nations is happy to welcome delegates from all over the world, whether they come as individuals or as part of a delegation. Thank you for your interest in our program. This page is designed to give specific information for attendees from outside the United States and Canada on how to attend NWMUN. If you have any questions after reading the information below, please contact us at registration@nwmun.org.
What your payment includes (and doesn't include)
Fees paid to NWMUN, which may take the form of "Delegation Registration Fees," "Delegate Registration Fees," or "Individual Registration Fees," are your payment for attending the conference alone. When paying these fees, you are paying for participation in the conference, a country assignment, your copy of printed materials (conference program, etc.), and the experience of being part of NWMUN.
Delegate fees do not include the following costs, which you must organize and pay for separately:
- Transportation from individuals' residences to their airports
- Airfare from country of origin to the United States
- Transportation from the SeaTac airport in the United States to the conference hotel
- Lodging costs paid to the hotel
- Any costs associated with acquiring a visa to travel to the United States
NWMUN can offer assistance with some of the logistics, including help getting US travel visas and booking hotel rooms; however, the payment is still the responsibility of the delegation or delegate, not NWMUN.
If you need assistance with acquiring a US travel visa
We do provide assistance with travel visas for groups attending NWMUN. Unfortunately, we cannot provide assistance with acquiring a travel visa for individuals attending by themselves; please check back with us in 2014, when we may have the capacity to provide such assistance for individuals.
If you need assistance with reserving hotel rooms
