Attrition Surcharge

If you don't make reservations and stay at the hotel where University Learning Systems has reserved a block of rooms, you must add the attrition surcharge to the conference fee. Staying at hotel with an offer other than the ULS Group Code such as through a third party booking, still requires payment of the Attrition Surcharge.

2025 Hotel Attrition Surcharge: $200

ULS will verify all rooming/cabin information with the hotel /travel agent and the hotel /travel agent has the right to release pertinent information to ULS for all attendees. No credit will be reported until the Attrition Surcharge is satisfied.

We apologize for any inconvenience. Unfortunately we have recently experienced a rash of attendees not utilizing the ULS designated hotel or travel agent causing ULS to incur significant penalties.
