Columbia University Science Olympiad Event Supervisor/Test Writer Application 2023-24
Columbia University hosts an annual Science Olympiad Invitational for Division C students across the nation!

We are recruiting both Columbia and non-Columbia event supervisors to write tests for various events as well as volunteers willing to supervise those events on the actual day of the competition. If you are unfamiliar with the structure of an event but are still willing to write a test for it/supervise it because of your interest in the subject area, we will provide you with guidance on writing a test, the official rules manual, and links to previous tests for reference.

The competition will take place January 27, 2024, and the deadline to have the tests done and ready will be around Thanksgiving. Any questions regarding this application can be directed to columbiascienceolympiad@gmail.com.

After filling out this form, you will receive an email from Columbia University Science Olympiad (columbiascienceolympiad@gmail.com) letting you know if you have been selected within a few weeks. Applications are evaluated on a rolling basis. The deadline for applications is September 24th. You will be informed of our decision by the beginning of October.
