All of these programs are open only to persons who register for the Joint Mathematics Meetings and pay the Joint Mathematics Meetings registration fee, in addition to the appropriate program fee. The AMS reserves the right to cancel any program that is undersubscribed.

Full-Time Students:

Any person who is currently working toward a degree or diploma is eligible for this category. Students are asked to determine whether their status can be described as a graduate (working toward a degree beyond the bachelor’s), an undergraduate (working toward a bachelor’s degree), or high school (working toward a high school diploma) and to mark the Registration Form accordingly. 

Retired:

Any person who has been a member of the AMS for twenty years or more and who retired because of age or long-term disability from his or her latest position is eligible for this category.

Librarian:

Any librarian who is not a professional mathematician is eligible for this category.

Unemployed:

Any person who is currently unemployed, actively seeking employment, and is not a student is eligible for this category. This category is not intended to include any person who has voluntarily resigned or retired from his or her latest position.

Developing Country Participant:

Any person who is employed in a developing country, where salary levels are radically not commensurate with those in the U.S., is eligible for this category. See the most recent list of developing countries here.

Non-mathematician Guest:

Any family member, friend, or associate, who is not a mathematician, and who is registered by a participant in the meeting is eligible for this category. Guests may access anything on the platform.
