Entrants who submitted proposals in previous years and still meet the eligibility criteria may apply again. Proposals must be submitted by a single entrant only. The number of entries submitted by an individual, however, is not restricted. All submissions must be in English. The Competition reserves the right to disqualify proposals with excessive spelling or grammatical errors.
All expenses are the responsibility of the candidate.
Taxes are the responsibility of the winners. Proposals received by The Merrill Lynch Forum will not be returned. Merrill Lynch will cover only the travel expenses of the winners. The awards activities will be for winners, judges and Merrill Lynch participants. The Merrill Lynch Forum will defer to the intellectual property rules and customs of the submitting university.
