Student Photo Contest

You may enter up to three photos. Deadline for submissions is November 30, 2023. Entries are not accepted via email.

Prizes for the best photos will range between $50-$500!

What we’re looking for:

  • Creative photos
  • Crisp, clear, and in focus
  • Representative of the country, culture, and ACA experience (preferably featuring ACA students)
  • Print-quality images, minimum height/width 2988px

Because we’d like to showcase your photography in print and large media, we are asking for high resolution photos. The minimum width or height is 2988px. That translates to around 10 MP (megapixels). The maximum file upload size is 20MB.

If you have an iPhone 8 or higher, your phone will take acceptable pictures. If you have a Galaxy S6 or higher, your phone will take acceptable pictures—just be sure it’s set to the highest possible resolution. For other types of phones, you may need to check the camera settings. The same goes for your digital camera.

You must be logged in as a student to enter our contest.

Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime.
