2018 Olympic qualifying for figure skating

Following the results of the 2017 World Figure Skating Championships and the 2017 Nebelhorn Trophy, here are the unofficial spots qualified for the countries at the competition.

For countries with one entrant at Worlds, the entrant must finish top 2 for three spots and top 10 for two spots. For countries with more than one entrant at Worlds, the top two placements must add up to 13 or fewer for three spots and 28 or fewer for two spots. Entrants who do not qualify for the free skate max out at 18 placement points; entrants who qualify for the free skate max out at 16 points (e.g., an entrant finishing 20th after the free skate still gets 16 points).
