That wasn't true when I competed. I actually picked up a complimentary membership because I competed, if I remember correctly.

My institution was ACM-affiliated, but I'm not sure that matters either.



Then it was the IEEExtreme competition that required IEEE membership.

And my institution is ACM affiliated as well, and also paid for my entrance fee to the ACM. But now that I think about it, I believe you're right, I don't think the ICPC required it.


Actually, participants in a regional competition get a free ACM Student Lite membership.
