About 18 under 18

18 Under 18 is a Times NIE initiative celebrating school students who lead, innovate, create, and drive real impact far beyond academics.
Schools across India are invited to nominate students who are shaping change through ideas, action, creativity, or courage.

    Here's How It Works

  1. Schools identify standout students across 18 categories of excellence.
  2. Nominations are open from January 27 to February 10.
  3. Entries are assessed by the jury based on impact, originality, effort, and future potential.
