The schedules for each week of interviews will be announced in the osu! University Discord server.
In case you miss them, you can find the recordings of all interviews over on the osu! University YouTube channel.
As the core feature of this event, the osu! University Discord server will feature text channels (called "gangs") for skills you want to learn! These act as a place for you to connect with other players who are also focused on improving that skill. Ask questions, share tips and maps, arrange multi lobbies, and make new friends!
List of text channels:
You are allowed to join as many channels as you'd like!
In addition to the gang channels, osu! University has a Discord forum where you can ask any type of question you'd like (the forums will stick around even after the event ends!).

- #stream-gang

In addition to the gang channels, osu! University has a Discord forum where you can ask any type of question you'd like (the forums will stick around even after the event ends!).
As the cherry on top of the gang channels, you can opt into being assigned to a random group of 8 players (called "squads") to join you on your journey through Improvement Month. Squads are intended to provide a smaller group of people for you to collaborate, compete, and improve with! Each squad will be given a Discord text thread in the osu! University Discord server.
Squad assignment will be completely random among the people who opt in.
They will not be balanced by rank, country, skillset, or anything else.
You can opt yourself into the Squads program here.
Squads will start being assigned before the event begins. If you miss the start of the event, don't worry! You can still opt in at any point throughout the month, and new squads will be made periodically as new players opt in.

In a nutshell, how it will work is that two players will play a 1v1 with Best of 3 (first to 2 points). The winner stays in the lobby, and the loser is eliminated from the tournament. If you win four 1v1s in a row, you advance to the next stage of the tournament and join us again the following weekend. There will be no mappool ㅡ players can pick any Ranked, Loved, or Qualified map they would like (as long as it's under 5:30 length and 8.25 stars).
Registration is open now and will close on Thursday, October 5, 2022.
Throughout the event, there will be a progress log form for you to let us know how you're doing. Anyone who logs at least 10 sessions throughout the month will be entered in a raffle to win one of 20 osu! keypads! Sessions must be logged within 4 days of that session occurring, and all sessions must be logged by November 3, 2022 at 23:59 UTC.
There will be a main text channel (#improvement-month) where a bot will announce when someone has successfully reported progress for a day. This way, you can check to see if your progress logs have gone through! Scores that are shared through the progress log may be picked randomly to be showcased in the #score-showcase channel.
Along with the King of the Hill tournament, osu! matchmaking is the place to go for playing matches on your own schedule. osu! matchmaking offers ranked solo and duo queues using an in-game osu! bot, so you can compete on your own schedule. Climb the ladder and see how far you can push your skills! osu! matchmaking will continue even after Improvement Month ends, so don't worry about losing your progress.
osu! University is the central hub for all professional osu! coaches.
If you would like to be worked with 1-on-1 with an experienced top player, coaching is the best way to receive personalized guidance on what to focus on from a player who was once in your shoes.
As a part of osu! Improvement Month, all osu! coaches will be offering 25% off all their coaching services. You can find more information and the list of current coaches in the #coaching-info channel of osu! University.
