SAE INTERNATIONAL

Your membership may not be active in the SAE International system for up to a month after you

renew or register with your affiliate organization. We ask that team members (other than the

person registering the team) that wish to participate in the competition updated their

memberships at least one month prior to registration so they can be affiliated to the team.

International students must be a member of one of the following organizations:

o SAE International

o Institute of Mechanical Engineers

o SAE India

o SAE Brasil

Even if you are a member of an affiliate organization, you will need to create a free user account

for www.sae.org. After creating it, email CustomerService@sae.org your customer number so they

can affiliate it to the proper university.
