Competitions for College Seniors

Hey everyone, just wanted to pick your brains a bit. For background, am currently in my last year of undergrad and have been relatively active in the stock pitch competition scene for the last 2-3 years. I feel like it's one of the few tangible things that keeps me hungry and engaged as I trod through my last year of classes. Anyone know of any competitions in fall and spring outside of the large student-run ones (UMich Engage, HFAC) and school-specific corporate-sponsored ones (have done a fair share of those as well, planning on doing Farallon in spring)? Just keeping in mind that a lot of these competitions don't want seniors to participate in the first place. Many thanks in advance.
