Early Bird pricing ends September 30, 2025
 

CSNO is pleased to launch our 2025-2026 membership drive. Membership spans from June 30-July 1 annually. We appreciate your membership and hope you take advantage of early-bird pricing, which runs through September 30, 2025, and renew now.  Members that renewed with the CSNO 2025 Annual Conference and Spring Conferences will span through June 30, 2026, and are not yet eligible to renew.

Renewal at the early bird price is only applicable for current members whose membership expires in June 2025 and for new members who join by September 30, 2025. Those who renewed till June 2026 with annual conference registration are not yet eligible for 2025-26 membership yet since we don't have the rates and the system won't allow it. 

Members on a recurring payment plan (whether bi-annually, quarterly or annually) don't have to and won't be able to renew as their auto payment is ongoing and their dues will be deducted automatically from their credit card on June 30. For the failed payments due to cc # change, our Office Manager, Monika Katyal will be reaching out to those specifically and separately.

CSNO has membership incentives for individuals that recruit the most members. These incentives include a free 76th CSNO Annual Conference Registration for the CSNO member who recruits the most new members (1 non-nontransferable award). Free CSNO membership for members that recruit the greatest number of members, one per section (6 total-nontransferable).
