Frequently Asked Questions

When is the registration deadline?

Your last chance to get in on this is by midnight on June 10th, 2019!

Who should register for FEEcon?

If you’re interested in entrepreneurship or exploring economic thinking, this is for you! Whether you’ve studied the principles of liberty for years or you haven’t taken your first economics class, we welcome participants of all levels of experience.

What if FEEcon is too expensive for me?

You're still important to us! A gracious group of donors has offered us a limited number of stipends for students.

I confirmed my attendance but need to cancel. How do I do that?

Cancellations may be initiated via Eventbrite by logging into your account and selecting View Order Details. The cancellation deadline is May 14, 2019. All cancellations made after the deadline are non-refundable.

Where should I make my hotel reservation?

You can take advantage of the large block of hotel rooms we reserved at a discounted rate. The Marriott Marquis has a limited number of rooms, so we suggest you book early to secure yours. If you choose to Airbnb just make sure it’s not too far and is easily accessible to the hotel.

We suggest reserving from June 13th to June 16th, 2019 in order to attend all FEEcon events.

When should I arrive?

Check-in begins on Thursday, June 13th from 1pm to 5pm ET.

If you are not staying close to the Marriott Marquis, the hotel is easily accessible via MARTA Transit; you will want to get off at the Peachtree Center Station and follow the directions provided.

Can I share the hotel room and split the cost with another FEEcon attendee?

Unless you’re ballin’, we encourage you to do this! It’s a great way to network and fully immerse yourself in the FEEcon experience. If you know someone who is attending FEEcon and you would like to room with them, go ahead and arrange that with the hotel. If you do not know anyone attending and want to find a roommate, please join the FEEcon Facebook group and leave a post.

We’re 100% focused on bringing you a rockstar convention, so we're leaving you to your own devices to find a roommate that you like and to get things squared away with the hotel.

What about meals?

Already thinking about food, huh? Hungry much? Rest assured, we’ll provide coffee and bagels or pastries for breakfast every morning and heavy hors-d'oeuvres during both the Thursday night Kick-off Event and the Saturday night Closing Ceremony. There are several dining options within walking distance as well as within the hotel. Please take a look at the available options.

For our VIP guests, we have an assortment of delicious meals lined up for you! You can find all the information on your itinerary. Interested in upgrading?

Can international students register for FEEcon?

Please note that you are responsible for your travel and for obtaining a visa. ~~A gracious group of donors has offered us a limited number of~~ travel stipends ~~that are solely devoted to international students!~~ (Sorry, all international stipends have been given out!)

How do I get a visa after I am accepted?

Your first step will be to contact the US Embassy or Consulate in your country and find out what options are available to you and their requirements. Be sure to do this as soon as possible as it may take a few weeks or months to complete the process. Once registered, if you need a letter from FEE to bring to the embassy to help with the visa process, please submit a request. If you’re still having trouble and need some guidance, shoot us an email.

What's the dress code?

Business casual attire for all sessions and social events, and cocktail attire for the VIP Dinner. While we’re not a bunch of corporate bigwigs, you do want to dress to impress. You might meet your co-founder here, or come across your next big opportunity!
