Rough guidelines for invitation to the Onsite contest:

There are a total of 55 slots for the onsite contest.

Since the objective of the ACM ICPC is to encourage participation from a lot of universities, the selection of teams for the onsite contest is not a simple 'top 55 teams'.  In addition, the number of slots available from Amritapuri for the World Finals in Harbin, China, depends on the number of universities participating, especially in the on-site contest.

  1. Foreign teams automatically get an invitation to the onsite contest.  (They still have to register on time, pay reg fees etc.).
  2. Teams who have made no submissions at the online contest will be automatically counted as canceled.
  3. Teams who have made at least one ACCEPTED submissions are then ranked, and one team will be selected from each university in that list.
  4. If 50 slots are not full after the above, we will select more teams from the top of the list to fill up to 50.
  5. The remaining 5 slots are handed to universities (i) that have a lot of participation and (ii) whose teams did very well.  We will use our discretion in this matter.
  6. Teams that do not complete their registration for the onsite contest (including payment) will lose their spots that will then be handed over to other teams.

The above guidelines are only approximate.  The decisions of the contest management team are final. If you have to appeal, please do so through your coach as far as possible, and make sure that your appeal is well-thought out and well worded.

Registration Fee for onsite contest is as follows:
Foreign teams: US$100/-
