National titles are awarded on a first come, first serve basis.
Contestants compete against themselves and must earn a score of at least 80 out of 100 in at least 3 scoring categories to be awarded a NATIONAL title (at least 70 out of 100 for a State title).
Contestants do not receive score sheets. If a contestant does not receive the required score, he or she will be given another chance to re-apply free of charge and will receive a detailed critique sheet on ways to improve their score.
The top 3 scores across all scoring categories are kept and averaged for the overall score.
