Here with you, for you.

Know Your Resource: MIT Turbovote Site 

Registering to vote or changing your voter registration can be a cumbersome and confusing process, especially if you are new to the State of Massachusetts. Everyone in the MIT community can register to vote, check their registration status and sign up for election reminders through MIT's turbovote site.

WHERE to vote?  
US citizens can vote in the US city where they live (you must register to vote in the city where you live)  
OR you can submit an absentee ballot (if you live in another state)  
 
WHEN to vote?  
The 2022 US Midterm Elections take place on November 8th! If you plan to vote by mail, please check the state you are registered for absentee ballot deadlines to make sure your vote is counted. If you plan to vote in-person, you can go on the day of November 8th to a polling station near you.

Should I register in Cambridge? 
All students who are eligible to vote, and living in Cambridge, can vote in Cambridge. If you have a legal residence in another city/state, you can choose to register in that city/state or Cambridge.  

Don’t live in Massachusetts? You can still vote!

We are excited to welcome (back) new (and returning) students! In September students in the PhD and Undergraduate programs began their Sloan journeys.  

The staff in the Student Life Office looks forward to working with you, whether you participate in student clubs and organizations at Sloan, run for elected positions in Sloan Senate, contact our office for resources, or just stop by to say hello at one of our Meet the Suite events. The Student Life Office at MIT Sloan is here to help you navigate your Sloan experience. We advise and coach student clubs, support initiatives to promote individual well-being, produce School-wide events and programs that build community, promote diversity and inclusion, and enhance the principled and value-centered culture that defines MIT Sloan. We provide students with opportunities to organize and run clubs and events, participate in student government, and plan conferences and treks. We host a variety of programs and events to bring the student community together across all degree programs (#OneSloan).

Welcome to Sloan!

Camp Sloan Lottery is Open! Deadline September 9th

Camp Sloan is an overnight trip famous for bonding across the Sloan community in the scenic White Mountains. The group will depart Sloan on Friday, September 30th at 2:15 PM and return in the afternoon on Sunday, October 2nd. Sign up if you're interested in getting to know classmates from every Sloan program!

Camp Sloan will cost attendees $150 (includes transportation, lodging, and food). However, there is limited capacity given the size of the huts. Due to this, SOs or families are not invited to prioritize seats for Sloanies, and registration will be determined via lottery - make sure to fill out this form ASAP!
