Only 6 teams from a school may register during the early registration period (September 3-December 1). Additional teams from one school may register during the late registration period (December 2-January 15) on a space-available basis.
Membership Fee Schedule:
Teams are not officially registered until membership fees or Purchase Order or payment by check is received and processed. Reminder that ONLY when registration is finalized with WSO will the team be able to compete in Washington and elsewhere, including invitational and online tournaments. Fees paid to WSO cover applicable registration fees for regional, state, and national tournaments.
Payment Methods – PayPal, Purchase Order, or Check:
Make sure to complete School/Head Coach Registration prior to adding school/teams. Membership fee is $300 (per team) for all returning teams. If your school needs special accommodation, feel free to contact the state Director at statedirector@washingtonscienceolympiad.com.
- For new schools and schools who did not participate in the last five years, your first team will receive a $100 discount.
- To introduce Science Olympiad to new schools with a small student body or new schools who want to participate partially in 2025, we offer another discount of $100 for one new team per school to attend Regional in half of the regular events (coach's choice) and all the trial events. This small-school discount will be experimented with Southwestern and Eastern Regions only this year.
To pay online:
- Click on the Pay registration fees button above. You will be prompted to log in.
Notes: (1) If you haven't registered your school or associated with one, the system will redirect you to the School Listing so you can review the list and register your school if necessary.(2) If your team registration has mix of discounted and regular team fees, contact State Director (statedirector@washingtonscienceolympiad.com) to identify alternate ways to complete payment ... since Scilympiad/PayPal do not allow for directly paying for all teams with different registration fees.
- Select PayPal for immediate processing. Note, PayPal charges a small fee that is covered by the payee.
- Registration confirmation will be sent following payment confirmation.
To pay by Purchase Order:
- Email full copy of Purchase Order to statedirector@washingtonscienceolympiad.com (registration will not be processed with the PO # only - send the actual PO). Also note that the Scilympiad "purchase order" is NOT a substitute for the school/district's PO ... the school/district MAY use it to process payment, but from WSO policy, we need school/district PO in order to invoice for payment.
- State Director will finalize team registration and send confirmation.
- State Director will invoice the school/school district and credit the team registration when paid. Invoice terms are Net 30 (e.g., payment to be made within 30 days of receipt of invoice).
To pay by check:
Make check payable to Washington Science Olympiad, note school name on memo line if school name is not written on the check and mail to:
