Please read the following to ensure a smooth submission process.

• Required Fields: You are required to complete all information marked Required. You cannot proceed to the next step until all required fields are filled.
• Adding Multiple Entries in One Form: In the Entry Information section, you can add multiple entries to one submission form by clicking on the “Add Entry” button. For example, if you have 2 stories you want to submit, click on the “Add Entry” button and enter the details of the first story. Click on “Save Entry” when you have filled in all of the information for the first story. Once you have saved, you will get sent back to your main submission form.

• PDF/Image Quality: If you are uploading a PDF or image of an article, make sure that the content is not pixelated when zoomed in. Judges receive all of your content digitally, so all files must be easy to read and review.
