Texas Imagemaker selections are based on awards students have received in state and national photography contests. As long as a) more than one school participates in a contest; and b) both the entry rules and the list of winners are available online on a public website, the contest can be included on the application. ATPI will require entrants to include the URLs on the entry forms with the student’s name easily identified on the list of winners.
List awards on the form including Best of Show, First, Second, Third or Honorable Mentions/Exhibitors. Use the following chart to determine points:

– National/international contest | 10 points
– State/regional contest | 8 points
– Local/restricted access (limited to specific groups, like the TAJE Best in Texas or on-site contests like the ATPI Winter Conference) | 6 points
