Q11.3: We would like to know if we need to have a chapter by the time we submit the proposal. This is the first time that a team from *** University will participate in the Seismic Design Competition. We do not have a chapter yet and we haven't been approved for the chapter. We were a bit worried that it would disqualify us. Do we need to have a chapter by the time we submit the proposal ?

Question

Accepted Answer

A: No, you do not need to have the student chapter officially established. We understand that it takes time to establish the chapter, and you are actively working on getting the approval for an official chapter. We welcome your participation and encourage you to follow up with EERI about your student chapter status.
