If you are traveling without a College issued credit card some hotels may not extend the exemption to you. To maximize your ability to receive the exemption, you may wish to request a College check, prior to traveling, for hotel expenses.

The States of Massachusetts and Illinois do not allow an exemption for lodging tax. If, however, the College is holding a function at a hotel in Massachusetts the hotel will accept the certificate and waive sales tax.
