The student nomination process opened on October 15th and will close on December 20, 2018! If your school nominates fewer than five students, it can partner with another institution or NASPAA can fill out your team with self-registered students. At least three students are required to form a school team. However, we recommend teams to be comprised of five students to reap the full educational benefits of the simulation.
