Cornell undergraduate and graduate students are welcome to join. We welcome students with little to no competitive programming experience who are interested in learning algorithms, improving their problem-solving skills, and practicing with others.

We hold weekly practices on Saturday afternoons. The location will be announced earlier in the same week.

Prior experience can be helpful for more competitive team selection rounds, but it is not required to attend practices. Beginners are welcome.

Join our mailing list or Discord for updates about upcoming contests. If you need help, email cornellicpc@gmail.com.

You can find past practice contests on our Codeforces group contests page.

Start with these resources:

• YouKn0wWho Academy Topic List — what to learn
• CSES Competitive Programmer's Handbook (PDF) — learn the basics
• CSES Problem Set — practice problems
• USACO Guide — step-by-step lessons
• Codeforces — a problem-solving platform

Go to Codeforces, create an account, and join our Cornell ICPC group to access practice contests.
