Registration and costs

Register your delegation (school, club, or individual) below.

Registration is due on March 8th, 2027, and will open soon.

The fee is $25 per delegate and $10 per student advisor. Late registration will be accepted only if space permits and will not get priority for country and committee assignments. We highly encourage you to register as early as possible to secure spots for your delegates.

Preparation and research

Position papers are due April 18th, 2027 by 11:59 pm to each committee's respective email in PDF Format. Research is an incredibly important aspect of Model United Nations and it's a facet we are proud to promote at Novice 49. Every committee includes an extensive Topic Synopsis that provides an overview of the topic and a case study, along with questions and sources to help spark your own research. Additionally, Novice 49 strongly encourages delegates to submit a position paper. Please reference our position paper format below. Note that delegates are still eligible for committee awards without submission of a position paper; however, they will not be considered for a research award. 

Food service

We will provide TK burger for lunch.
