How to Apply


The Miss America Organization stands for empowering young women across the country to be the best they can be through leadership, talent, communication skills and smarts.  Each year, thousands of young women participate at the local, state and national levels, culminating in the selection of 51 national finalists who compete for the title of Miss America.  One of them could be you!

Where to Start?


​To become Miss America, a candidate must first win a local competition and then compete to represent her state, a process requiring personal commitment, hard work, and talent.  A woman may compete at the state level more than once, but may only compete in the national Miss America competition one time.

To compete in the 2022 Miss Wayne County competition, you must*:
  • Be a United States citizen.
  • Be between the ages of 17-26 and cannot be older than 26 years of age as of December 31, 2023.
  • Be a high school graduate or equivalent by July 31, 2023.
  • Live or work full-time in Wayne County or physically attend school full-time in Wayne County.
  • Have a talent that can be performed on stage in 90 seconds or less.
  • Satisfy the participation and local registration fees.
  • Be able to meet the time commitment and job responsibilites as set forth by the Miss America Organization.
  • Not be a candidate, titleholder, or representative of a competing program to the Miss America and MAOTeen programs.

*Please review the candidate contract for details on all eligibility requirements.​
