Individual and team awards are provided at all CIS tournaments. At standard CIS tournaments, the top five individuals and top two teams from each section will receive a trophy. At some special events, more prizes are given to individuals. Medals are given to players that finish in the top 10% of a section but do not win a trophy. For most events, 2.5/3 points will earn a medal, for larger sections 3.5 is required.
*Students who score 2.5 or more points in an unrated section must purchase a USCF membership and play in a rated section for all future CIS tournaments.
