My boyfriend got his professional application approved a few days ago. I have not received mine yet. I was wondering if they send out rejection emails or don't email you at all if you haven't been approved.
Or do they send the approval emails out in batches and mine is still being reviewed?

Unless something has changed, I'm pretty sure they send out a rejection letter. My brother got one of those a couple of years ago.

Yep they do send out approval letters in waves, and they also send out rejection letters (at least they have in the past).

It’s not looking like pro registration is gonna happen before open this year is it.

It would be nice if they would announce Pro Guest Badge allocations before Open Reg - but I don't think that will happen, but here's hoping.

Yeah. That’s what I was hoping for. Not counting on it though.

I wish open reg would be after Pro-Reg - Should I try for Open reg and maybe only get one day or hope that the Pro-Reg Guest Pass allotment comes through with a guaranteed 4day + Preview nite.

I am just worried that if I go with Open Reg and only get one day that I will be locked out of trying to get a Guest Pro Badge.

I sent this question to Comic-con via their contact form - waiting for a response:

Hello - Will Pro-Guest Badge allocations be provided before Open Reg? It would be great to know to determine whether some may not need to go through Open Reg and risk only getting one or two days that may be able to get an all-days badge through Pro Reg as a guest. If someone does go through open reg and go just one or two days but later finds out if they would be able to get a Pro Guest badge instead would they be shut out of getting the Pro Guest Badge because they already purchased a badge through open registration? Thanks for any info you can provide.


This is what their refunds policy says:

"If you use your Member ID to purchase a badge for a day for which you previously purchased a badge, the original badge you purchased will automatically be canceled and the amount paid will be refunded, less the 10% processing fee, without contacting you.

For example, if you purchased a Friday and Saturday badge during online attendee registration and you use your Member ID to register as a professional and/or press with Preview Night at a later date, the Friday and Saturday badge you purchased during attendee registration will be canceled and refunded, less the 10% processing fee. "

So I'm guessing (hoping) you'll probably lose that 10% processing fee but get your pro guest badge. Or maybe I'm being too optimistic.

Do they include the Guest Badge Allocations?

I registered as a Pro--the first time! And I could register 2 guests that I have to pay for. It is so great to have that cleared up before Open Registration.

Got the email, too. Same as other folks: my complimentary badge and 2 paid guests.

Questions as a first-year Pro:
Child Badges: Is there a limit for under-12 badges per Prof badge? Regular policy is 2 per PAID reg and 1 per Volunteer badge.

Open Reg: are we able to try/buy badges during Open Reg for friends/family as well as our 2 per Professional allotment? Or are we limited to just our Pro allotment?
