Registration Pricing & Refunds
With all-inclusive 360 pricing, each registrant pays a one-time $360 registration fee that covers:
- All meals for your you and your guest/family/party, including Saturday class dinner
- Access to campus facilities (fitness center, pool, climbing wall, library, golf course, etc.)
- Entertainment and events throughout the weekend
- Class gatherings and receptions
- Alumni Colleges
- Free grub at the food trucks
There is no additional charge to register for on-campus housing and on-site childcare. Each alumnus/a attending reunions and any spouse, partner, or adult guest of the alumnus/a pays the registration fee. Children are not charged a registration fee.
If you only wish to join your classmates on the Hill for dinner (if you live locally, for example), contact us at hamily@hamilton.edu so we can make arrangements.
Individuals will be reimbursed in full for cancellations made online by Monday, June 1, 2026. Due to planning commitments we make with off-campus vendors and other partners, we regret that we cannot offer refunds for cancellations received after this date.
We do not process refunds during Reunions Weekend (June 11 - 14).
You can modify your reservation details by returning to the registration page and clicking ”Already registered?” You'll want to reference your registration confirmation email for the confirmation number. Cancellations must be made by June 1.
All meals, including class dinner, are included with your registration. You do not need to select which meals you plan to attend-- just grab a plate!
Housing
Relive your time on the Hill by rooming in a residence hall! It is free to stay on campus if you are registered to attend reunions, but you may of course choose to secure your own off-campus accommodations if you prefer. Register for on-campus housing during your registration process.
If you are rooming alone or organizing the room for your group of friends or family, select "Yes, I am handling the housing for myself/my group." Then answer related questions. You may reserve a room even if you have not finalized exactly who you plan to room with.
If you plan to stay on campus but a friend is securing the room for your group on their registration, select "Yes, a friend is handling the housing and adding me."
If you do not plan to stay on campus and you are going to work out your own accommodations, select "No, I am not staying on campus."
Direct any questions about on-campus housing to our Housing Coordinator at hamdorm@hamilton.edu.
Please email our Housing Coordinator at hamdorm@hamilton.edu.
All beds are twin beds that sleep one adult. Packages with the following items will be provided for each bed: two towels (slightly larger than hand towels in size), one washcloth, top and bottom sheets, one blanket, one pillowcase, and one pillow. The majority of bathrooms are shared bathrooms.
We recommend bringing bathrobes, hangers, shower shoes, hand soap, and a portable crib for infants and toddlers. You may want to consider bringing a fan for warm nights and/or extra blankets for cool weather. The rooms do not contain clothes hangers, refrigerators, microwaves, hair dryers, or ice buckets, or toiletries.
As you make plans with your friends, decide who will book the room. During the HOUSING portion of registration, this designated person will select "Yes, I am handling the housing for myself/my group." Then they will select the number of beds needed for your room (up to 4). You can list intended roommates even if they have not yet registered, but room assignments won't be made until all roommates have completed their registrations.
Any roommates who are not responsible for booking the room for their group will select "Yes, a friend is handling the housing and adding me." when asked about HOUSING during registration.
When you register for on-campus housing, you can request a private bathroom during the special requests section, and we will take this into account when assigning your room. However, you should know that the majority of rooms on campus use shared bathrooms, and there are very limited options for on-campus rooms with a private bathroom. If having a private bath is a necessity, you may be more comfortable securing a reservation at a local hotel.
The Alumni Office clusters class years together when assigning rooms and works very hard to make this possible.
Contact our Housing Coordinator at hamdorm@hamilton.edu.
During the room assignment process, we are mindful of finding the best possible placements for families with children. We're here to help, so contact us with questions at hamdorm@hamilton.edu.
When you are registering for on-campus housing, select the room type with the number of beds you'll need for each member of the family. For example, a family with two parents and two kids would need to request 4 beds. But two parents who are bringing a pack-n-play for their toddler would only need to request two beds. Families requiring more than 4 beds should contact our Housing Coordinator at hamdorm@hamilton.edu.
If you arrive outside of registration hours, call Campus Safety (315-859-4141) and they will be able to let you into your room. Keys to your room may be picked up the following morning at registration (Kirner-Johnson).
After removing all your personal items from your dorm room and returning the room to its original condition, we ask that you keep your key with you and you lock the dorm door. Please return your key to its key envelope and deposit it in the key drop box located in Kirner-Johnson 102 during registration hours or just outside of Kirner-Johnson 102 when registration is closed. If you have lost your key envelope, please take a blank envelope from near the drop box and write your dorm, room number, and name. Make sure that friends/family with extra keys return their keys properly as well.
