Registration

Please note that NAIMUN LXIII Registration opens May 12.

Registration Process

This year, we will continue to use our custom-made NAIMUN Registration System! Made in collaboration with HoyaDevelopers, a student-led coding organization at Georgetown, to design and build custom registration software, we are excited to cater directly to our conference and our delegations’ needs.

The most exciting innovation is the Delegation Portal. With login credentials faculty advisors create while registering, primary advisors will gain access to a fully customized, one-stop-shop Delegation Portal. Delegates and co-advisors will join the delegation via a "Join Code," the delegation’s roster will populate with assignments when they are released, delegates can submit their position papers, and the delegation’s payment options, invoice, and status will automatically update.

For a step-by-step walkthrough of the registration process, please reference our NAIMUN Registration Guide.

If you have any further questions, please contact our Director of Registration, Olivia Fanders, at naimun@modelun.org.

Registration Policies

Independent Delegations

NAIMUN warmly welcomes independent delegations to our conference and encourages them to register. Independent delegations have a minimum size of one and must be accompanied by an advisor (who can be a parent, faculty advisor, teacher, or other trusted guardian). Independent delegations can register for NAIMUN through the NAIMUN Registration System. Please note that all independent delegations should register as a “Delegation.”

NAIMUNAid Applicants

NAIMUNAid sponsors dedicated students who would otherwise not have the financial means to attend our conference. We understand that registering for NAIMUN entails a substantial financial commitment and are proud to continue our NAIMUNAid program and help as many schools as possible attend NAIMUN. More information about financial aid can be found on the NAIMUNAid page.

NAIMUNAid applicants should register at any point prior to the NAIMUNAid application deadline of September 12, 2025 for International Schools and October 10, 2025 for U.S.-based schools. Once you register, please email our Director of Registration, Olivia Fanders, naimun@modelun.org, and indicate that you will apply for financial aid so that you are not expected to pay your delegation’s fees until after you receive your NAIMUNAid decision.

Delegate Age Parameters

Please note that NAIMUN is a high school conference. Delegates must be high school students between the ages of 13 and 19 at the time of NAIMUN LXIII, which begins on February 12, 2026.

EARLY REGISTRATION LIMITED CAPACITY

NAIMUN LXIII is implementing an Early Registration window, in which there are a limited number of available Early Registration spots. Once this capacity has been hit, registration will close and not reopen until the Regular Registration period. For this reason, we ask only delegations fully committed to attending NAIMUN LXIII to register as soon as in possible in order to secure Early Registration spot. If you are a delegation intending to apply for NAIMUNAid, please email the Director of Registration, Olivia Fanders, at naimun@modelun.org to inform her of your intent.

Payment Timeline

NAIMUN LXIII is enforcing a 1 Advisor: 25 Delegates Ratio, as well as capping Delegations at 40 Delegates.

Please note that under the 1 Advisor:25 Delegates ratio, one advisor can only supervise a maximum of 25 delegates at a time. Delegations are accepted on a first-come, first-serve basis. In the event that NAIMUN hits its full conference capacity, applications will begin to be pushed to a waitlist. For this reason, we ask that you register as soon as possible in order to secure your spot.
