Submission is by self-nomination, and students should send their entries directly using the Three Generations Prizes for Writing Submission Form.

Submissions must contain both a copy of your paper and a brief description of the assignment.  If your paper is interdisciplinary, you may list two prizes, though each paper may only win one prize.

Any currently-enrolled Wellesley College student may submit a paper for this prize.

Each contestant may submit only one entry.

Honors theses may not be submitted; but papers written for independent studies are eligible. Papers written for courses taken at MIT, Brandeis, Olin, or during an official exchange program are also eligible.

Papers written during the spring semester of the preceding year, as well as the fall and spring semesters of the current year, are eligible.

Prizes awarded to seniors will be listed in the Commencement Program and all other prize recipients will be listed in the Convocation Program.
