Registration will open on Wednesday, September 16th, 2026 at 6 PM ET and will close the following Friday, September 25th at 6 PM ET. More details about registration will be available shortly. We will guarantee acceptance of schools that meet either of the following qualifications:
All teams that do not meet the conditions for guaranteed acceptance will have their acceptance determined by a lottery. As we continue to grow our tournament, we aim to maintain a diverse pool of competitors while also upholding the rigor of our tournament. As such, we still strongly encourage all teams to apply, especially Massachusetts teams, regardless of their reputation or experience level.
Schools that would like to bring two teams can fill out an additional question on the registration form regarding why they need to bring two teams—the answers will be reviewed to make sure as many teams are satisfied as possible.
The registration fee and financial aid information will be posted with the full registration details.
Please do not hesitate to contact us at scioly@mit.edu if you have any questions. We look forward to the upcoming season!
