No Evaluation option: FAQ
If I choose the No Evaluation option, do I have the same chance of winning prizes and getting heard?
Absolutely! All songs will still be reviewed in the same way by the same judges. You have the same chances to win. The only difference is that our judges won't need to write out and process evaluation forms. (And, of course, you don't need to send a SASE with your entry packet.)
Why did the GASC start offering this option?
Since we started the Great American Song Contest in 1999, the number of participating songwriters has grown steadily each year. That's because we offer a rewarding event, we've established a proven track record, and we have outstanding judges.
This means that each year there's a lot more work for our small staff. The time and effort needed to coordinate the judging and the evaluations is huge.
With this new option, people who don't care so much about receiving evaluations can choose to pay lower entry fees. People who still want written evaluations can continue to receive them.
The Great American Song Contest is sponsored by Songwriters Resource Network, a trusted news and education resource for songwriters, lyricists and composers.
