Got the privilege to post this first Woo! Another season to look forward to. Post everything NJSO related here.

NJ State website: http://www.njscienceolympiad.org/index.html

Shout out to all NJ teams: try and recruit some new high schools, or send two teams. Let's rack up the team count so we can send TWO teams to nationals.

To the affected NJ teams,

Please note that NJIT will not allow schools to register two teams for the 2014-15 season.

There seems to be a LOT more stringent rules with registration too this year. I urge all teams to look at the updated registration guidelines:

WOAH...UCC IS ON A SATURDAY

Lol this new regional date for Union screws things up a bit for us
Any news about the possibility of holding an invitational in NJ?

[nxtscholar]

Yeah, sent you an email. But to anyone following the news from last year's forum, it seems like every school district's administration is the roadblock. With regards to JP Stevens, there is a new district test being set up, and they blacked out certain dates in January and later where we wouldn't be able to hold anything - except they're not telling us what the dates are -_-

UCC....ugh. If it's a Saturday, our school doesn't get buses.

Ugh, that UCC thing messes things up for me too. Unfortunately, the invitational I was planning couldn't happen. My school for some reason decided that we were too small to host a big event like that (I mean, I layed out how exactly we would fit everyone and where in the proposal, but oh well).

[nxtscholar]

Ugh...CJMEA.... -_-

We should all just coordinate with each other which regional we're going to. I personally want to go head to head against the best where it won't matter, which is to say not states.

Bumping to let everyone in New Jersey know that registration is OPEN for 2015 and that the date for Union is back on a Wednesday! (Yay! )

Shout out to everyone from the NJ forums last year: we only have 48 teams registered so far for division C. only...

How did you figure that out?
