How do I create an account?

Click here to find the "create account" form. Fill in your name, contact information, and email and password, and you're set! When you sign up, you'll be logged in automatically and can start creating your submission right away.

Where do I go to enter a submission?

When you first log into your account , you'll see a "Start a new entry" form. There is only one category for our grants so no need to choose, give your entry a title, and click the "Start" button. In the form that loads, you will find all the information you need in order to enter your submission. You don't have to complete your submission all in one sitting. Your submission saves while you work, so you can always come back to it later.

When you're finished, tap the "Add to cart" button at the bottom of the entry form. Your entries are then considered "officially entered". Remember, there is no cost to submit.

Can I make changes to my submission after I've entered it?

Yes, you can continue to edit your submission until the submission. After the deadline, you will be able to view your submission, but the editing controls will be disabled.

Do I need any kind of special software to make my submission?

This awards system is entirely web-based. You can create your submission on your phone, iPad, laptop, or any computer. All you need is a browser. We do suggest, however, that you create your submission in a separate document and copy and paste the information in when ready.

How do you protect my information?

Your account is protected by industry-leading 4096-bit encryption, and the entire system is backed up every day.
