REGISTRATION

SMC is for college students. Whether you are seeking God for the first time or looking to be challenged to take the next step in your faith, SMC is for you.
SMC is $349. Check with your StuMo campus for any special discounts.
Price includes three nights in an amazing hotel, conference materials and access to all main sessions, breakouts, and more!
Additional food and transportation to and from the conference are not included.
Registrations purchased for SMC 2027 are non-refundable. However, registration is transferrable to another individual. The deadline for transferring your registration to another student is December 27th, 2026.
To transfer your registration, talk to a StuMo staff that you are connected to or email smcbranson@stumo.org.

You choose! You can drive in, fly, carpool, etc. Many students have planned a caravan or carpooling in the past. If you need help planning your travel, feel free to ask a StuMo staff that you are most connected to!
Arrival and check-in details will be communicated later! Check your email for this information closer to the conference, but you can plan on arriving in the later afternoon for now.
Yes!
With SMC being January 2-5, inclement weather is always a possibility. Our hotel contracts do not allow cancellations last minute due to inclement weather, therefore, neither can we.
If you are traveling from out of town/state, please be aware of any weather conditions on your route.
Almost all conference events are within walking distance of the hotels. If going offsite, students typically pile into each other’s cars. Transportation is not provided by the conference to any offsite venues.

We want to make sure you have the best possible experience at SMC, including rooming with your friends! That’s why we put the staff at each campus in charge of rooming assignments. Students will room with other students of the same gender.
The conference is full of amazing speakers and interactive experiences. The schedule will be released closer to the conference, so be on the lookout in your email for that!
