Q: "What happens if our team of students win their competition? "

A: By registering your students for any KY TRIO Student Initiative Competition, your program agrees to assume all costs (transportation, food, lodging, etc.) to get students to the SAEOPP Student Regional Academic Competitions in Atlanta, GA. Additionally, your program will assume all costs for any chaperone from your program as well.

As more information about the region competition is available it will be passed on to all winning teams and programs.
