For information on the rules for the State Economics Challenge, please review the 2013 National Economics Challenge Rules & Eligibility link below. The state competition will closely follow these rules with one exception:

  • Students are permitted to compete in the Joan Robinson (small school) division more than one year.
  • This rule change was made to better facilitate the ability of small schools to compete in Econ Challenge. Small schools include those with a population below 600 students.
