When you register for a free offering, you will complete a registration form and then select the “Submit” button. Once you hit the submit button, you will receive an email confirmation to the email address you used on the registration form.
When you register for an offering with a registration fee, you will complete a registration form and then select the “Submit” button. A payment form will then appear where you can enter your payment information, billing address, and email address. If you used the same email address on the registration form and the payment form, then you will receive two emails to the same email address. One email is an email confirmation of your registration and the second email will be your payment receipt. If you used two different email addresses, then you will still receive two emails, but the confirmation email will go to the email address you used on the registration form and the receipt will go to the email address you used on the payment form.
Very rarely, an email confirmation may be caught by your spam filter. Please check your email’s spam or junk mail folder before contacting us and/or be sure to add collective@garrett.edu to your email provider’s safe sender’s list. Each email provider has different steps for adding an email address to its safe sender’s list, so please reference your provider’s “help” feature for instructions on how to do this.
Other times, when quickly trying to complete a registration form, there may be a typo in your email address. If you don’t receive an email confirmation, please contact collective@garrett.edu. If this is the case, we will be able to correct your email address on the email confirmation and re-send the confirmation email to you. Please allow 48 hours for a response.
There are three main reasons you may not receive a receipt:
Sometimes, we have had an issue with the payment form appearing after the registration form. We are in the process of working this out with the provider of our registration system and hope it will be resolved soon. In the meantime, please email us at collective@garrett.edu so we are aware of the issue and we will send you a different link to use. Unfortunately, we do not have a way for you to complete only the payment form, so you will need to re-register by completing the registration form to then access the payment form.
If you need to pay by check, please complete the online registration form and select “Submit.” When the payment form appears, you can close that webpage. Then send an email to collective@garrett.edu to notify us that you have completed your registration, but will be sending a check to us for payment. This will ensure we do not delete your registration as an unpaid registration. Your check should be payable to “Garrett-Evangelical Theological Seminary.” In the note section of the check, please write the name of the offering. If the offering has a long title, then just the first few words of the title are fine. The check should be mailed to:
Garrett-Evangelical Theological Seminary
Rev. abby mohaupt
2121 Sheridan Road
Evanston, IL 60201
We monitor unpaid registrations and will contact you to notify you of an unpaid registration and include the link to re-register for the offering. Unfortunately, we do not have a way for you to complete only the payment form, so you will need to re-register by completing the registration form to then access the payment form. Once we contact you about the unpaid registration, your unpaid registration will be deleted from the registration list for the offering.
If you want to change or correct anything on your registration form, please email collective@garrett.edu and we will make your requested changes and confirm we made the changes via an email response to you. If needed, we can also send you an updated confirmation email through our registration system.
If you received a receipt, then your payment is complete. If you notice a typo on the receipt, for your security, we do not have access to view or make changes to anything you entered on the payment page. We use the information on your registration form to register you for the course, so having correct information on your registration form is what is most important.
Sometimes late registrations are accepted. If you wish to register for an offering but the deadline has passed, please email collective@garrett.edu so that we can advise you appropriately.
When you register for either an offering with a registration fee or a free offering, you will receive an email confirmation of your registration to the email address you provided on the registration form. For most of our individual one-hour webinars and our multi-week webinar series, the link to join the webinar(s) is included in your confirmation email. For a webinar series, the entire series of webinars will be accessed using the same link each week of the series. We also send reminder emails with this link 3 business days prior to the webinar and the morning of the webinar.
If you register to attend the live webinar whether you attend live or are unable to attend live, we will email you the link to watch the recorded webinar when it is available. You can also access our past recorded webinars by clicking here.
Everyone who registers to attend a webinar series whether they attend live or are unable to attend will receive an email within 24 hours of each live webinar that includes a link to access a recording of that week’s webinar. This means as long as you are registered, you can miss the live webinar(s) and be able to view the recording(s) when you are able to do so. If the webinar series includes continuing education units (CEUs) and you want to receive CEUs, then you will need to participate in the live webinars or watch the recordings between the start date of the webinar series up to one week after the last live webinar in the series.
We use Zoom for our webinars and have found it to be very accessible for participants. To participate in a webinar, you will need the following:

If you will be parking before 4 p.m., Garrett-Evangelical Theological Seminary has a small lot located on Garrett Place just east of Sheridan Road directly in front of our main building. The cost to park in this lot is $8. It may vary if your conference or workshop is subsidizing this cost. To park in this lot, please follow these instructions (unless your conference or workshop host provides alternative directions):
We are located at 2121 Sheridan Road, Evanston, IL 60201. When you are on Sheridan Road, head east on Garrett Place. At the end of Garrett Place, you will reach a circle (there is only one short block between Sheridan and the circle). Please park in the circle with your hazard lights on. You can enter the double doors and the receptionist will be to your left. The receptionist will collect your payment and provide you with a pass. You can pick up the pass and then re-park your car in the small lot in front of our main building. If you will be going in and out of the lot on the same day, then you can keep the pass with you (or in your vehicle) until you leave for the day. The last time you exit the lot, please deposit your pass in the box by the exit as you pass through to leave the lot.
If it is before 4:00 p.m. and there is no parking available in Garrett-Evangelical Theological Seminary’s small lot, then the Garrett-Evangelical receptionist will be able to sell you a Northwestern University parking pass for $8.25 and they will provide you with a map of where you can park on Northwestern University’s campus.
If it is after 4:00 p.m., then you can park at no cost in the large Northwestern University parking lot located immediately south of our main building. You do not need a pass.

Unless otherwise specified on the offering’s registration page (and your email confirmation), we typically provide refunds according to this schedule:
It is our priority to ensure every offering we plan is able to run according to schedule, however if there is an unforeseen circumstance making it impossible for us to proceed with the offering as originally attended or if participation is too low, Garrett-Evangelical Theological Seminary may determine it needs to cancel an offering. Every effort will be made to notify those who are registered of the cancellation 7 business days before the course start date Registrants will receive a full refund.
