FAQs & answers about registration:
How much does it cost?
- Prices are the same as last year - no inflation! There are many different price points depending on membership status (so be sure your membership is current) and how many days you are attending. In addition, there are special rates for ESPs, administrators, retired, unemployed, and student attendees, as well as for presenters. Check your options carefully on this page.
- You may register using a credit card, opt to send a personal check to the MSLA at PO Box 336, Wayland, MA 01778, or register using a Purchase Order. If using a PO or paying by check, click "Invoice Me" at the end of the registration process. This generates an invoice which you forward to your school's business office, who will then send a check to the MSLA office.
- Yes! No problem. MSLA will follow up with all unpaid invoices.
- No! Attendees MUST complete their own registrations, and please do not submit registrations on behalf of anyone else. Registration asks personal questions about dietary restrictions, other professional affiliations, and personal email addresses.
- To book rooms at our discounted MSLA group rates, you must call the hotel's reservation line (781) 769 7900, or email Lucy Finnerty ([email protected]) with your desired dates and room types. See more details here.
