DIRECT ENTRY FEE
All Candidates competing in the Miss America's Outstanding Teen program must pay a once-per-season MAO registration fee of $35 by March 30, 2023 if you are not already registered.
Miss Ohio's Outstanding Teen entry fee is $450 and must be submitted with this form. This fee includes your Title, Health and Fitness Outfit, Official Crown and Sash. If you already have an official Miss America Local Crown, this fee will be reduced by $75 and you will use your existing crown during Miss Ohio Week.
We have multiple titles available for direct-entry candidates, see the list below.
If you would like a custom title, you may submit a request for the custom title along with a $50 fee. The $50 will cover the state of Ohio registration fees. If we are not able to register your customer title, we will refund your $50 fee.
We must have payment in full before we can order a Sash, Crown, and/or Custom Title. We will not offer refunds once you are registered and accepted as a Direct Entry candidate.
