Young women participate in local programs during their JUNIOR year to qualify for our State program, which is then held during the fall of their SENIOR year. **Once you apply, you will be placed in one of 6 local programs based on your home address. If you do NOT have a local program in your geographic area, you will be placed in the Utah At-Large program. You must participate in the program to which you are assigned.
