Online Team Registration
The UTEP Robotics Program is an Affiliate Partner with FIRST® and partners with FIRST In Texas (FIT) to bring more convenience to teams to register and pay for registration fees associated with our events and leagues across the state and specifically the El Paso region.
Attention FLL Explore and FLL Challenge Teams: Once your team pays the national registration fee to FIRST, request a quote for the local UTEP Championship registration fee. You will have the option to pay by check or purchase orders (PO) and make payment before and on the day of the event. Checks can be made payable to: UTEP College of Engineering, Robotics Program and can be mailed to:
- UTEP College of Engineering
- ATTN: K-12 Outreach Programs / Gabby Gándara
- Engineering Building, Room A-148
- 500 W. University Ave.
- El Paso, TX 79968-0517
For PO's please notify engrfrontdesk4@utep.edu when and how it will be submitted.
Attention FTC Teams: Once your team registers nationally with FIRST (have a regular team number) and registers with FIRST In Texas (FIT) – West Area/Region - you can make payment through this website: https://store.firstintexas.org/first-tech-challenge-registration/
Apply for Grants and read Important Things and GRANT PAYMENTS to make sure you are ready to go before the league starts.
