FAQs

Do I have to be CS or SE to join?

No. We welcome all Carleton students interested and passionate about tech.

How are spots allocated?

We use interest forms + participation signals to allocate fairly. Additional criteria may apply if demand exceeds capacity.

Can I arrange my own travel?

Yes, though no reimbursements are provided by CCS due to limited funding.

What if I miss a deadline?

Spots are time-sensitive. Missed deadlines may forfeit your place.
