Illinois Individual State Tournament (IIST) Division C
The IIST is for Division C students who earned a medal at their Regional Tournament but whose team did not earn a bid to state. Shortly after each Regional Tournament, the coaches whose teams did not earn a bid to state will receive an email if they had any students who earned a Regional Medal. This email will outline the IIST and inform the coaches in which events their team may enter students.

Illinois is the first state in the nation to approve Science Olympiad as a Career and Technical Student Organization (CTSO), joining the ranks of other well-known skill development organizations, and making some team expenses eligible for Perkins V Federal funding. Perkins V provides funding to middle schools, high schools, and community colleges that have established Career and Technical Education (CTE) programs.
School may use their Perkins funds to pay for Science Olympiad registration, supplies, and any other related expenses.
