The Office of Admission at Centre College is excited to announce the “Golden Ticket” Contest, an opportunity for admitted Class of 2014 students to win a $500 book voucher at the Centre Bookstore and (for the Grand Prize winner) an Apple iPad.
The contest, which celebrates Centre’s unique spelling in America, has only one objective: find a business, a sign, a billboard, anything that bucks the American spelling of “center” and spells it “centre;” then photograph yourself with it.
After that, make sure you’re a fan of The Admission Centre on Facebook and post your submission to the wall with the location and brief description of your “centre” find by Thursday, April 15, 2010. That’s it.
One grand prizewinner will be selected to receive an Apple iPad and a $500 book voucher to the Centre Bookstore by the Centre College admission staff based on creativity, composition, and the uniqueness of the “centre” find. From the remaining submissions, nine other winners will be randomly chosen to receive a $500 book voucher to the Centre Bookstore. All 10 winning entries will be announced at “Centre of Attention” on April 17th. (You do not have to be in attendance to win.)
Winners must ultimately enroll at Centre in the fall to redeem their Golden Ticket and claim their prize.
Further rules of eligibility below.
i. The “Golden Ticket” Contest is open only to students admitted to the Centre College Class of 2014.
ii. Only one submission per student, so make it count.
iii. Photo submissions should not include Centre College memorabilia as the subject (i.e. brochures, posters, pennants, bumper stickers, campus signs), but may be in the picture.
iv. While the announcement of prizewinners will be made on April 17th, 2010, recipients will not receive their prizes until they enroll in the fall.
v. Grand Prize Apple iPad is a 16GB WiFi-only model.
