MARS is All-Inclusive!
With our event, we make it real easy.
All you have to do is register and show up.
We take care of the rest for you!

































































Your ALL-INCLUSIVE tuition is ONLY $1699
In addition to the school’s down-to-earth, friendly atmosphere,
and all the fun and camaraderie you can handle,
your paid tuition gets you all of this:
What's Included:
- INSTRUCTOR - included! Up-close, week-long instruction, encompassing nearly 40 hours of education. Personal interaction with world-class, rock-star industry pros. You'll be in a class learning from one instructor, but hanging out all week with others from across the country who share your passion. There is absolutely no better way to learn than this type of immersive environment!
- HOTEL ROOM - included! No need to worry about finding a hotel or making reservations. Your double occupancy room is part of the package. And, you'll stay on-site where the event happens, at the sea-side resort Hyatt Place hotel, located directly on the bay and only steps from the Atlantic Ocean. So from Sunday night through Thursday night, you're covered!
- MEALS - included! No need to worry about where to eat, because we take care of that too! The food is amazing, both in quantity and quality. MARS provides restaurant fare, NOT cheap cafeteria food or pizza or hotdogs or chili. A wide variety of offerings are served at each scheduled meal, including vegetarian (where 'salad' is not considered a vegetarian meal). All scheduled meals (including BREAKFAST M-F, LUNCH M-Th, DINNER S,M,W,Th)
- TAXES, GRATUITIES - included! No need to worry about 'hidden' hotel taxes or 'resort' fees. And how's sitting down to a great meal, and when you're done, you just get up and go about your business? No need to worry about taxes or tipping. All covered for you!
- SCHOOL-WIDE FUNCTIONS - included! These events are open to all students and paying guests. More educational information and bang for your buck!
- PARTIES & FUN - included! No need to worry about having a blast because the parties and entertainment are part of the deal! Opening night "Blast-Off Welcome Reception" (happy hour, hors d'oeuvres, dinner) and our grand finale themed "Wrap Party" (cocktail hour, hors d'oeuvres, dinner, DJ Manny Man, dancing, awesome video recap of the week, awards, prizes and more)
- PRIZES - included! Giveaways, door-prizes, and raffles - all week long! Because of the generous support of our AMAZING sponsors, MARS gives away prizes ALL week. Plus, our Thursday "Wrap Party" alone has prizes valued at nearly $6000
- PPA MERITS - included! If you're a PPA member, you'll receive 2 service and 5 CEUs for attending the full week
- COMMEMORATIVE ITEMS - included! You'll get a convention program, group photo, embroidered T-shirt, and a MARS certificate of achievement! Only at MARS!
- PARKING - included! If you're driving in, each registered guest of the school gets free parking in the covered garage or outdoor lot! That alone at some places, might cost you $200 or more for the week. Not at MARS. We've got you covered.
- RELAXATION - included! Pull up an Adirondack and sit by the fire-pits on the amazing deck, while you watch the sunset over the bay. Bask in the sun, chat with friends, have a beverage, bring a guitar, or just read a book (or all of these!)
