A NEW form must be submitted for each merit type. Please Note: while typically Print Competition Merits are automatically awarded, if you feel you are missing certain Print Comp Merits, you can use this form to claim those missing merits (subject to review).
All awards and degrees are conferred on members at the Annual Conference.
