Students should be aware that this deadline includes the faculty sponsorship form, which faculty cannot complete until this form is submitted. Waiting to submit this form until 5:00 p.m. on Monday, March 26, will make it impossible for your faculty adviser to submit the sponsorship form on time and will disqualify your entry.
