These students will be considered as enrolled from Delhi-NCR, and the same selection criteria for RMO 2025 and INMO 2026 will apply to them as to any student residing and studying in India who has enrolled from Delhi-NCR. Students must bear the expenses for travel to and from India.
• As per orders of the Madras High Court, students with OCI status are not eligible for selection to the Indian team for the International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO), European Girls' Mathematical Olympiad (EGMO), or Asian Pacific Mathematics Olympiad (APMO). However, such students may be provisionally eligible for selection at all prior stages, up to and including the International Mathematical Olympiad Training Camp (IMOTC) and the European Girls' Mathematical Olympiad Training Camp (EGMOTC), provided they meet all other criteria. These students are also provisionally eligible to take the selection tests at the IMOTC and EGMOTC. This policy is subject to change without prior notice, depending on any further orders issued by the courts or a competent government authority.
