74th CPOY Calls for Entries

It's time to pull together the best of your images from the past year for entry in the College Photographer of the Year competition!

Entry is free, courtesy of Nikon Inc. and their 13-year commitment to College Photographer of the Year, and it is easy, thanks to CPOY's photographer friendly online entry system.

The entry deadline is 11:59 pm Central Time, Sunday Sept. 22, 2019. But please help yourself, and us, by entering early to avoid creating a last minute logjam on CPOY's servers.

If this the first time you are entering, be sure to read the rules, ethics clarification statement and instruction page carefully. If you have entered before, you will still need to create a new CPOY account for this contest year and pay careful attention to the rules, entry guidelines, categories, ethics statement and directions, as there are changes.

In these times of increased concerns over digital alteration, I urge you to pay particularly close attention to the Ethics Clarification Statement found under Rules. We maintain strict ethical guidelines, and we expect entrants to follow them as well.

Judging of the two divisions will be Oct. 27th to Nov. 3rd, beginning with Stills and concluding with Multimedia. You are invited to attend the open judging on the campus of the University of Missouri in Columbia. If you can't join us, screencasts of the judging sessions can be viewed beginning October 28th. Please check Facebook or follow @CollegePhotog on Twitter for updates.
