Entry forms
Choose your words well! Your description is read by the judges
to evaluate the objectives, cost, and outcomes of your entry.
If you receive an award, your words will be used in the awards
presentation video and exhibit to describe the success of your
project.

Download an Entry Form
Select a Maroon & Gold Awards
entry format:
Download the PDF entry form.
Download the entry form in Word format.
The entry form is available in either PDF or Microsoft Word formats
at the links to the right. The information requested is exactly
the same in both formats.
Use Adobe Acrobat software, if possible, to complete
the PDF version of the entry form so you are be able to save an
electronic file for your personal records,
as well as print a copy to submit with your entry.
If you use Adobe Reader software, you will be able
to complete and print the information you enter, but your information
will be lost as soon as you close the file. You will need to complete
and print the form in one sitting. You will not be able to save
an electronic version of the entry form. In that case, you may
want to prepare your essay information in a word processing file
prior to adding it into the PDF entry fields.
You may choose instead to complete the Microsoft
Word version of the entry form. Keep in mind that concise, well-written
descriptions will help the judges make timely, fair decisions.
