IMPORTANT NOTES ABOUT PRE-REGISTERING

  • Pre-Registration closes about three weeks before the conference and will not be reopened.
  • If you would like to register a group of 10 or more undergraduate students, please send the Executive Officer an excel spreadsheet that lists each person’s full name, email address, and university or institutional affiliation. You can then arrange a time for one member of your group to come to registration and pick-up badges and programs for everyone.
  • If you preregister and then find you are unable to attend, MPA cannot refund your registration.
  • Registrations cannot be switched with other attendees.
