We are currently validating the confirmation from the students who passed the first round and sent us confirmation for their active participation in the second round.

We would like to clearify to all the students, parents and teachers that there is no fee to participate further in second round.

A set of assignments will be sent to confirmed students by the weekend. You can do that at your home and you do not need to come to Kathmandu. We will share the submission process and deadline via email.

If you have passed the first round bit failed to confirm earlier, this is a last chance we allow you to do so. So hurry up!

Don't know how to confirm? Please visit www.nepalastronomicalsociety.org/olympiad and read the first round result notice carefully.

Thank you! See you soon virtually! ❤️🇳🇵🌎✨️
