2008 Institute Honor Awards Online Submission FAQs
How do I know my submission has been received?
You will receive a confirmation number
upon completion of your entry.
What if I want to make changes after I have completed my
submission?
You can edit your submission up to the
deadline date at midnight, Eastern Time.
How will I know my attachments were uploaded?
To view your attachments, click the
attachment file name in the "Attachment" column located at the
bottom of the File Upload page. Your PDF or JPEG will open -
the juror will view it just as you have created it.
What if I can not upload an attachment?
First, make sure the file you are
uploading is either in PDF or JPEG format. These are the only
two types of files able to be uploaded so that we can maintain cross platform
compatibility. This ensures that the Mac vs. PC question does
not come into play.
What if I have a PDF or JPEG file and am still not able to
upload the attachment?
All files to be uploaded must be smaller
than 6MB. Please check that your file meets these
requirements. The system will not allow anything larger for your
convenience, time requirements, and server space.
What if I am not capable of converting a file to a PDF or
JPEG?
Most copy centers and local libraries can
help you convert your files. Technical support will also help
you with your file conversion - they can be reached from the link
on the on-line submission labeled "Problems, Questions, Comments?"
located in the upper right hand corner of each page.
Why am I limited to the number of
uploads?
There has always been a limit to the
number of exhibits allowed so that the jury has adequate time to
review each submission thoroughly.
When will I know the jury's
decision?
We will call all recipients within 3 days
of the jury meeting.
What if I change my mind and do not want to submit?
The decision to submit your application
should be made very carefully before you enter the payment
information. Once you have entered that information and click "save
and continue", you will be charged and no refunds will be
issued.
