Student packages and services

For students of institutions that do not purchase packages, students can create their own teams and participate as an unaffiliated team. Unaffiliated teams follow the same eligibility criteria, with the exception of requiring all team members are students or eligible alumni of the same institution. Fees are priced per competition or challenge cycle.

Eligibility: Individuals currently enrolled in an accredited U.S. higher education institution, as well as alumni who have graduated within the last 24 months.
