*Individuals representing a US state/US region may have the opportunity to complete for the Ms. Achievement U.S.A. title (see below) depending on the number of U.S.A. contestants. However, if 10 or less US state/US region contestants, those individuals will be combined into the World competition. If so, there will only be one title awarded, Ms. Achievement World. If combined into the World competition, US state/US region contestants will not receive any additional membership gifts; so, they would not be required to pay the additional $100. 

*International contestants/titleholders/winners are responsible for all customs fees applied/required. 

^In addition to various community service and mentoring activities, educational success may include the completion of a professional certificate (e.g., practical nursing), accredited associate, bachelor, master's degree, and/or honorary doctorate (honoris causa )^^.

Therefore, OJT or entrepreneurship, which resulted in the owning and running of an active business, which is as the primary source of personal income, may be deemed educational success. 

​

^^Individuals with an earned, accredited academic doctorate degree granted by a federally recognized postsecondary academic institution would need to compete in a one of the DWP "Dr." competitions.
