See more details on our event page.

Registration

Registration is open for all the Retreat dates during the Spring 2024 semester. Registration will close Monday the week of each scheduled retreat date. You must select to register for each date separately; however, you may add them all to your cart and proceed to checkout to complete the registration (Note: DO NOT USE THE BACK BUTTON while adding multiple dates to your cart.)

Space is limited! If the session is full, you may add yourself to the waitlist.

Select Time Blocks

Enroll yourself with the purple button above (adds the event to your cart). You will sign in with your JMU eID and password and submit, then complete the program registration.

Program Dates: 1/26, 2/9, 2/23, 3/8, 3/22, 4/5, 4/19, 5/3 

Register for the entire day, or just one of the writing blocks and/or lunch. However, you must select at least one writing block option other than the meal with your registration.

NOTE: You are not required to attend for the entire writing block. If you are only able to attend for a portion, please select the writing block that overlaps with your availability. For example, if you can attend from 11-3, select morning, lunch, and afternoon.

Please check your email for your registration confirmation!

Cancellations

If you find that you are unable to attend a scheduled event prior to the registration deadline, please return to your CFI Program Account and cancel your registration. If it is after the registration deadline, please email cfi@jmu.edu as early as possible to avoid being waitlisted for future events. We value your interest in this popular writing retreat; however, due to the high demand of faculty interest for this program, a registered participant who doesn't attend one of these scheduled events without prior notification to CFI may result in being waitlisted for future writing retreats this semester. We appreciate your respect for our programs and others that wish to attend.

CFI programs will be canceled automatically if JMU is closed for inclement weather. Contact us at cfi@jmu.edu or (540) 568-4846.
