Hosting an International ACAC
Annual Conference


You are welcome to submit this form at any time to express your interest in learning more about hosting an International ACAC Annual Conference. Submitting the form is not a commitment to host - it is an expression of your interest in learning more or beginning the host proposal process.

Hosting an International ACAC Annual Conference is an excellent strategy to increase your international profile and enrollment by highlighting what makes your campus and community unique. Previous hosts have reported that having hundreds of secondary school counselors on their campus has had an immediate impact on their application pool. Some have seen increases in international applications of up to 45%, and all have seen increases in diversity and quality.

By completing this form, you will be invited to any information session, presentation, or conversation for interested hosts. International ACAC understands that hosting a conference requires collaborations across your campus and within your community, and we want to assist you in gathering the information necessary for confidently submitting your institution's name as a potential host.

This form will inquire about the following considerations:

  • Are you interested in being the primary host, holding the majority of events on your institution's campus, or a secondary host that would support the primary host?
  • How many attendees could your campus host at one time?
  • Could you provide on-campus housing, and if so, how many beds could you provide?
  • How many dining facilities are on your campus? Can you provide on-campus catering services?
  • What types of transportation could your institution provide? (For example, on-campus shuttles, vans/buses, bus passes, golf carts, etc.)
  • What airports and/or train stations are nearby? This information helps us determine how attendees might travel to your campus.
  • And, of course, we would love to know why you are interested in hosting!

At the end of the form, you will have the opportunity to share any specific questions you have about being an International ACAC Annual Conference host. 

Please note that host institutions must have active International ACAC member(s) on staff. 

Should you have any questions about this interest form, please contact Erin Garcia, International ACAC Executive Director, at  egarcia@InternationalACAC.org.   

Kindly note that you must be an International ACAC member to submit this form.
