Hello,

Michelle.
Hi Michelle,
You can click purchase on by clicking on the Sign Up Now link at sdmicrofinance.org/education or go directly to http://www.microfinance101.eventbrite.com.
The event is $20 for non students and $10 for students (covers all 4 courses)
I have made several attempts to pay for the registration using Visa, AMX, debit card and all were rejected. Am I the only person having this problem?
Can I just show up and pay at the lectures in person? Any risk of not having a seat? Thanks.
Hey Lucilia,
Yes, you can pay at the door. However, the list of acceptable payments does go down considerably. The only two forms of payment we will-currently, we’re working on it- accept at the door are cash and check.
Right now, there are a few open seats, and even if the seats fill we would have some standing room, if that is all right with you. The price doesn’t change, it’s still 20 for non students and 10 for students.
Thanks,
Joseph Davis
