If you are unable to access the form, e.g., due to firewalls, please instead fill out this plain text file and submit it via email to cvpr2018_volunteers@outlook.com. This email should have the title "Student Volunteer Application". Note that an email submission should only be done if it isn't possible for you to apply via the regular form.

What Are the Responsibilities of a Student Volunteer?
We have a variety of volunteer opportunities and will coordinate with selected students to identify the most appropriate volunteer role for each student. Many of the positions involve working for 2-3 shifts (each about 2 hours) during the course of the conference to transport materials, manage registrations at the desk, help session chairs, etc.

What are the Benefits of Participating as a Student Volunteer?
Your conference registration fee is waived. We ask that you register as normal and once you have satisfied your volunteer duties, we will refund the registration. Note that registration fee will be reimbursed to the credit card that was used when registering. These are not travel grants. So if your professor paid for registration, the fee will be returned to your professor’s card.

You also will get to meet individuals organizing the conference. This opportunity is incredibly valuable for growing your professional network.
