2018 Deloitte Tax Championship FAQ
Qualification
Q: For 2018 Deloitte Tax Championship, should senior students with postgraduate recommendation register as undergraduates or postgraduates?
A: According to the rules of Deloitte Tax Championship, all the participants must be full-time students at the time of registration and over the entire period of competition. Senior students with postgraduate recommendation shall register as undergraduates but occupy the quota of postgraduates. It is because they are still undergraduates when they register for Phase I Regional Competition in June, but qualify as postgraduates during Phase II National Competition in November.
Q: Are postgraduates about to enrol in September qualified for the 2018 Championship?
A: Deloitte Tax Championship is open to invited universities only, and all the participants must be full-time students at the time of registration and over the entire period of competition. Only senior students from invited universities who are going to enrol as postgraduates in September are qualified for the 2018 Championship.
Q: Can students who participated in Phase I National Tax Law Knowledge Contest of 2017 Championship enrol for 2018 Championship?
A: To be fair, it is the rule of Deloitte Tax Championship that students who previously participated in the Championship cannot attend it any more. However, as Phase I National Tax Law Knowledge Contest of 2017 Championship is actually a separate contest organized by CCTAA, students who only participated in the Phase I without entrance to Phase II contest of 2017 Championship can enrol for the 2018 Championship.
