Yes, you will be sent an initial confirmation of your application. If you do not receive this, it could mean there was a problem with your application. Get in touch with us if you haven’t received confirmation two weeks after your submission.

Once the application deadline has passed, we will have a Selection Committee review all applications and the top contestants will be chosen to compete at the live round. We will contact finalists with additional information and a place to upload a bio that will be used by our Master of Ceremonies at the final round.
