National Competition Eligibility Requirements
In order to facilitate broader participation by ASCE Student Organizations in Student Conference activities, the ASCE Committee on Student Activities (CSA) stresses the importance of the conference as an event that is much more than a qualifying round for national competitions and highlights the required events at a conference. As such, the following qualifications are required of all ASCE Student Organizations in order to participate in an ASCE-sponsored National Competition.
An ASCE Student Organization must:
- Be in good standing with ASCE (annual report and annual dues submitted and received by ASCE prior to the
start of the Student Conference). - Attend and participate in their assigned Student Conference as shown through their school's:
a) Good faith participation in the Student Conference Business Meeting (i.e. on time attendance by at least
one student representative);
b) Good faith participation in the Student Conference Paper Competition (i.e. submission and presentation
by at least one member of the ASCE Student Organization); and
c) Meeting any additional requirements of Student Conference participation set by the Student Conference
at the previous year's business meeting or in their written and approved by-laws, standing rules, or
constitution.
Note: The concrete canoe design paper/oral presentation does not count as an entry into the Student
Conference Paper Competition.
