FAQs.
I've submitted the registration form. What's the next step?
Your registration will be reviewed by a member of our team soon. As Hack&Roll receives many applications every year, we are unfortunately unable to accept all sign-ups. We will review all applications and notify you by email of the outcome of your registration.
After registering, where do I indicate my team and teammates?
After your acceptance is confirmed, you may form teams on this website.
What happens if I have already formed a team, but some of my teammates do not get accepted into Hack&Roll with me?
Unfortunately, we may not accept all members of your intended team. In that case, we hope you will still attend the event with other teammates.
I am registering alone / do not have a full team. How do I look for teammates?
After your acceptance is confirmed, you will be added to the Hack&Roll 2024 Discord server, where you can meet other participants and form teams before the event. If necessary, we will also help you to find teammates.
I am an international participant. Can I participate in Hack&Roll 2024?
Yes, you can! However, we do not provide assistance (e.g. visa, accommodation) in getting to Singapore.
I am a participant who has certain ailments or disabilities that will require certain additional accommodations or arrangements. Can I still join the hackathon?
Of course! Please do indicate in the registration form that you will require additional accommodations, and a member of our team will reach out to you, to discuss with you on how we can ensure your needs are well taken care of.
