The conference will take place at the Connecticut Convention Center on Thursday, February 21 - Sunday, February 24. NGLA members enjoy a registration fee of $190 a person before January 23, 2013, and one advisor registration is free with every 10 student registrants.
A new membership fee replaces the old Association fee that was usually charged upon registration due to the number of chapters on your campus.

After January 23, the registration rate increases to $220 a person for members and $280 for non-members.
