One notable policy change new for this year's SCT: if a school sends teams to two different SCT sites, both of those sites must take place on the same day. (That is: it's ok to send teams to a Saturday SCT and another Saturday SCT, but not ok to send a team to a Saturday SCT and then to a different SCT on Sunday.) For this reason, we will strongly prefer that online SCT sites take place on Saturday, February 3 rather than Sunday, February 4.
