Presentation proposals will only be accepted from registered vendors, and registration
does not guarantee that a proposal will be accepted for presentation. Please be aware
that the schedule may not allow for more than one presentation per company/organization.
Information on proposals for the 30th Students in Transition Conference can be found
on the Proposal Page.
The National Resource Center for The First-Year Experience and Students in Transition
at the University of South Carolina reserves the right to refuse requests for any
