Our Contests: Dates and Deadlines

A contest may never be written prior to the official contest date. We will do our best to arrange alternate dates for significant school-wide conflicts. Please contact us if you wish to arrange this.

Please note: A school must have a CEMC school account to order contests. If your school does not have an account, please submit a New School Application. Account creation is not automatic and can take approximately 3 weeks to be manually reviewed. Please keep this timeline in mind when submitting your application.
