The CUNY Math Challenge seeks to identify and reward CUNY's best math talent. If you know a matriculated CUNY undergraduate student who enjoys doing math problems, regardless of the student's major, please share the following information about the CUNY Math Challenge.
Students are invited to compete for scholarship/fellowship awards ranging from $100 to $1,000.
Here's how it works: Registration is open now for the first round, which will take place online. Students must register by March 21. The contest begins at 9 am on Monday, March 12 and will be open until Sunday, March 25. Problems range in difficulty from "not easy" to "pretty tough." Knowledge of advanced mathematics is not needed.
Students with the best scores in the first round will be invited to attend the final round, an in-person exam to be administered on Sunday, April 15 from 10 am-noon at Baruch College. Approximately 30 qualifying students will compete in this round. Invitations will be sent via email. This round determines the winners, who will be notified by email. A celebration for the winners will take place in mid-May. Winners will receive a stipend worth between $100 and a top prize of $1,000. Up to $6,000 will be awarded to the winners.
Students must register by March 21 at http://math.cisdd.org.
