Student Cover Competition

Starting March 15, Print will be accepting submissions for our 2011 Student Cover Competition. This year, we're asking students to tackle an essential question for designers (and magazines) head-on: What is the future of print design? How will the tangible, ink-on-paper pieces that designers love coexist with design on digital platforms in the years to come? Please create a cover design that addresses this issue and submit it no later than June 30.

More Information

For the first time, we will only be accepting submissions that are sent as digital files (students, if you can find a way to visually communicate the irony of this, given our cover topic, we will applaud your efforts). Please send the following items to studentcover@printmag.com:

• A digital file of your cover; the image must be 8.5" x 10.875" at 72 dpi

• A completed entry form.

Download Print’s logo to use on the cover here.

The deadline for this competition is June 30, 2010. Please see the entry form for other submission information. We will be announcing the winners and honorable mentions for the 2010 competition soon—stay tuned!
