I apologize if this has been addressed before, I did a quick search and didn't see anything. Thank you for your help!

How much after build season do you turn 18 (like, after competitions)?
Myself, I turned 18 a few days before Stop Build Day my first year of college, and signed up on TIMS at that point (having mentored the whole season until then).
This year, a team near me had a first-year student who was 17 the entire time - I think he just signed up on STIMS even though he was in college. (not saying this is the best way)
