This year’s Spark will be in-person on MIT campus. Join us to learn just
about anything for the weekend!

Registration

The deadline for submitting your class preferences in the class
lottery is 11:59PM
EST on Saturday, March 5. Register now on our website!
<https://esp.mit.edu/learn/Spark/index.html?src=spark-2024-announcements>

If you want a full schedule (maximum learning!), we recommend ranking 3
classes and starring at least 6 classes per time block.

All submissions by the deadline (March 5th) will be treated equally, so
take your time to look through the catalog. After you get your initial
schedule (a few days after March 5), you will be able to modify it during a
first-come first-serve registration phase!


Cost and Waivers

There is a $70 fee to attend Spark. However, we offer generous financial aid
and we encourage anyone who needs it to request aid. Payment and financial
aid requests will open next week after you receive your lottery results.

Other Logistics

We will send emails to Spark students in the weeks leading up to Spark, so
make sure you regularly check the email address that you registered with.

If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to email spark at mit.edu. Happy
registering, and we hope to see you at Spark 2024!
