WTAMU Career Services (CS) adheres to the "Principles for Professional Conduct for Career Services & Employment Professionals" from the National Association of Colleges and Employers and strongly encourages organizations that recruit college students to join NACE and/or the Southern Association of Colleges and Employers.
WTAMU CS policies do not allow the following types of organizations to register for any Career EXPO or Fair: employment/entrepreneurial organizations which are based on "pyramid" or "multi-level" structures and/or organizations that require employees to purchase products/services contingent upon their employment with, or on behalf of, that company/individual
In cases of inclement weather, IF West Texas A&M University is open for business on the day of the EXPO/Fair, the event will be held. If the university is closed, the event will not occur.
If a catastrophic event (an act of terrorism, extreme weather conditions, or other similar circumstances) occurs and West Texas A&M University is closed, the EXPO/Fair will be cancelled and registration fees will be refunded.
Refunds will be processed (minus a cancellation fee) if you notify WTAMU Career Services in writing more than 5 working days before the event that you will be unable to participate. If you cancel within 5 working days OR do not attend the EXPO/Fair for any reason, the full registration fee will be due. See individual fairs for the refund amount.
WTAMU CS reserves the right to add or modify fair policies as needed.
