Graduating Mavericks can submit their grad cap designs during the entry period via social media or email:

Social Media: Post a picture of your decorated cap publicly on your personal Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram. Post MUST include the hashtag #MavGrad2016 and tag the UTA account on that platform (Facebook, Twitter or Instagram). We cannot see private posts; as such, those submissions will not be entered into the contest.

Voting

All eligible entries will be uploaded to a #MavGrad2016 album on the UTA Facebook page after the entry period finishes. Voting will commence on Monday, Dec. 12 at 10 a.m. (CST).

Winner Selection

The contest entry with the most votes at the end of the voting period will be the first place prize package winner. The contest entries with the second and third most votes will win the second and third place packages, respectively. Winners will be notified through the platform (email, Instagram, Facebook, or Twitter) they used to submit their entry. Winners will have seven days to respond. If a winner doesn’t respond within seven days, the contest entry with the next highest votes will win.
