If a student has only a \u201cPh.D. Forum\u201d paper to register for (and no other paper at any of the other events for which there are no other authors registering), then the student can register as a student. Please note that all authors (other than students who only have a \u201cPh.D. Forum\u201d paper) are required to register at a full (IEEE member or non-member) rate.
