The countdown has begun. With only 48 hours remaining before the Regular Registration phase closes for the ISARCH 2025 Awards, designers worldwide face an important decision point. After April 30, submissions will still be accepted, but at higher Late Registration rates – representing an increase of 12.5% for students (from USD 120 to USD 135) and 12.5% for professionals (from USD 600 to USD 675).
Why Act Now: The Strategic Advantage
Beyond the immediate financial benefit, completing your registration within the Regular Registration period offers several strategic advantages that can enhance your overall competition experience:
Extended Preparation Window
Registering now while continuing to refine your submission until the final July deadline provides the optimal balance between securing favorable rates and maximizing project development time. This approach gives you access to the competition platform earlier, allowing you to understand the submission interface and requirements while still developing your project.
Dedicated Jury Attention
Early registrants often benefit from jurors’ fresh perspectives during the evaluation phase. While the ISARCH blind judging process ensures fairness for all entries, psychology research consistently demonstrates that evaluators can process early-reviewed submissions with greater attentiveness before potential evaluation fatigue sets in during later stages.
Team Commitment Catalyst
For collaborative entries, completing registration serves as a powerful commitment mechanism that transforms intentions into action. Many previous winners report that the registration milestone created productive momentum for their teams, establishing concrete timelines that motivated exceptional execution during the development phase.
Quick Action Guide: Complete Your Registration Today

Remember that you can continue developing and refining your submission materials after registration, with final project uploads due by the July 31 competition deadline.
A Perspective on Investment
Consider your registration fee as a strategic investment rather than simply a competition cost. Beyond the possibility of winning, participation connects you to the global design community, creates valuable portfolio assets through the preparation process, and positions your work within an internationally recognized framework of excellence.
At current Regular Registration rates, this represents an investment of approximately USD 0.33 per day for students or USD 1.64 per day for professionals when viewed across the full year – a modest commitment relative to the potential professional benefits and global exposure offered by the ISARCH platform.
The Decision Point: 48 Hours
With just two days remaining before rates increase, the time to move from consideration to action has arrived.
