How do I participate in the EPSA 2009?

You may register and submit your application between 1 January and 20 March (24h) 2009.

What happens after I have completed and submitted the account registration form?
After submitting the form you will receive an e-mail from EPSA containing confirmation of your account creation and details of your log-in data (i.e. email and password), which will allow you direct access to the online submission form.

Can I submit the same project under more than one theme?

Can I submit more than one project?
Of course it is possible to submit more than one project application. However, you may not submit the same project under two or more different themes.
