Interactive Workshop Tickets 

2026 Interactive Ticket Signs Ups are tentative and subject to change.

  • Interactive Ticket Information
  • Attendees will need a ticket for interactive workshops. Interactive workshop sign-ups will go live on October 13, 2025 at 9:00am.

    Instructions

    This year, attendees will use the CES portal to sign up for interactive tickets before the conference. Using their email and registration number, attendees may reserve one interactive session. Once registered, attendees should screenshot the confirmation page and save it for Conference day.

    Due to limited availability and space, not all of the approximately 3,000 attendees at the Pre-Health Conference will receive an interactive ticket. Tickets are distributed on a first-come, first-served basis through a reservation process. Interactive tickets are free for all registered attendees.

    Your interactive ticket reservation on the CES portal is not your entrance to an interactive workshop. Attendees who reserve a ticket must pick up a physical ticket during check-in. If any interactive tickets remain, tickets will be distributed on a first-come, first-serve basis.

    Day-Of Instructions:

    1. 1. Check in at the check-in booth to receive your name badge. A name badge is required to receive your ticket. 
    2. 2. Go to the second floor of the University Credit Union Center (6:30am-8:00am and 9:00am-10:00am) to pick up your interactive ticket.
