We just wanted to remind those applicant and student bloggers who are in the running for this year’s Best of Blogging awards that their ballots are due by the end of the day tomorrow (Friday, April 21st). While a good portion of the nominees have sent in their ballots, we’d like to have the input from as many members of the blogging community as possible, so we hope that those of you who have not yet sent in your votes will find the time to weigh in. Completed ballots and last minute ballot requests from nominees can be sent to bestofblogging@clearadmit.com.
Early next week, we’ll be tabulating the votes from nominated bloggers (50% weighting), Clear Admit staff and our panel of celebrity judges (25% weighting for each group), and announcing the overall ranking and six prize winners on April 25th. The second and third place bloggers in the student-blogger top 10 and applicant-blogger top 10 rankings will receive a one year subscription to Business Week or The Economist (their choice), and the two top-ranked bloggers (one student, one applicant) will be given the option of an iPod Nano or a $250 Amazon.com gift certificate.
We’ll be announcing the celebrity judges in tomorrow’s edition of Fridays from the Frontline, so stay tuned as the details of the contest continue to unfold!
