Dartmouth College makes available its athletic facilities for $5/day and if you wish to park a car on campus, there will be a fee of $3/day. If you wish to use these amenities, please add the amounts to your checks and indicate this in your registration letter.

Our preferred method of payment will be by check payable in US currency to "Dartmouth College."

Visitors from abroad can write checks from foreign banks to be paid in US Dollars or use bank checks in USD.

- Registration fee waivers and travel support

We will be able to support a limited number of participants' registration and travel expenses. If you wish to be considered for support, please email us and explain your situation. We will give preference to students but others are invited to apply as well. Award decisions will be made in May, shortly after the registration deadline.

Travel

Dartmouth College is located in Hanover, New Hampshire, approximately 130 miles (210 km) North of Boston.

- Air Travel

Logan Airport in Boston is probably the most convenient airport for attendees traveling internationally and for North American attendees coming from outside of New England. The airport is connected to Hanover by the Dartmouth Coach, which leaves the airport every two hours during day time hours (see schedule and fares here) and stops at the Hanover Inn. There are also two passenger flights a day into Lebanon NH, which is located 6 miles from Dartmouth.

- Driving Directions

From Boston: (130 miles, 210 km / 2.5 hours) take I-93 heading North. Continue on I-93 for roughly 60 miles (do not take the I-293 branch near Manchester). After the Hooksett toll booth you will reach I-89. Take I-89 North, after 56 miles you will reach Exit 18, in Lebanon, NH. Turn right and follow directions for Hanover (6 miles).
