We want to again thank the families, friends, teachers, and mentors of our students. Without you, this inaugural relaunch of Chemistry Olympiad would not be possible. Also special thanks to Montgomery College for agreeing to host the national competition.
If you are interested in receiving updates for the 2026 competition, please reach out to Lauren Ragle at lragle@gwu.edu. Interested students can also investigate the USNCO coaching program (click here for more information and video tutorials).
