CONTINGENCY PLANNING FOR COMPETITION DAY:

The MAA AMC is a school-based competition program hosted by public and
private educational institutions; it requires competition managers to proctor
the competition at a physical location. Competition managers are strongly
encouraged to create a contingency plan with alternate locations and/or
dates. Learn more about our policies here.

Alternate Dates The AMC 10/12 and AIME are offered

on two distinct dates each cycle to accommodate
school/center closure on the official AMC 10/12 A and
AIME I dates. If the school/center is canceled on the day
of the AMC 10 A, AMC 12 A, or AIME I, the competition
manager should contact AMC customer service
immediately at amcinfo@maa.org to register the location for
the AMC 10 B, AMC 12 B, or AIME II, respectively.
Additional competition dates are not offered for the AMC
10 B, AMC 12 B, and AIME II if the school/center is
canceled on these dates.
Alternate Locations If the competition manager’s
registered location is closed on the official competition
dates, the competition manager may administer the
competition at a library, another school, a university, or a
place of worship. However, the competition manager
must receive approval from the school/center
administration before offering the competition at an
alternative location.

PROCTORING UPDATE:
The competitions program has always required
competition managers to be affiliated with a physical
location. During the pandemic lockdown, we temporarily
allowed remote proctoring solely in response to
nationwide closures for COVID-19. Starting with the
2022-23 cycle, the AMC will return to its original in-
person format. We will continue to monitor the situation
and provide updates as needed.
