The winners of best paper competitions earn travel awards to ASA-sponsored conferences. The following general policies and procedures apply to all ASA section competitions (see individual sections for further instructions):
- Sections must receive all materials by November 15. Some sections have earlier deadlines, so check each section’s website for dates.
- Winners will be notified by January 15.
- For Joint Statistical Meetings awards, winners must submit abstracts through the JSM abstract submission system and register by the JSM deadlines.
- Students may submit papers to no more than two sections and may accept only one section’s award. Students must inform both sections applied to when he or she wins and accepts an award, thereby removing them from the award competition for the second section.
- Students planning to participate in section competitions must adhere to the eligibility, paper format, submission process, and other requirements of the sections to which they are applying.
