It does not cost a cent to compete in the Miss America program - all you need is commitment, perseverance, talent and ambition.

To compete you must:

Be between the ages of 17 and 24.
Be a United States citizen.

Meet character criteria as set forth by the Miss America Organization.
Be in reasonably good health to meet the job requirements.
Be able to meet the time commitment and job responsibilities as set forth by the local program in which you compete.

Each contestants must raise a minimum of $100 for the Children’s Miracle Network to compete in a Miss Texas local pageant. If you compete in more than one local pageant, you must raise a minimum of $100 for each local pageant you enter up to a total of $400. Once you have raised a total of $400, you are not required to raise more money and can enter as many local pageants for which you qualify in the current pageant year.
