Campus Stores give students in U.S. and Canada chance to win $100 and support student scholarships

OBERLIN, OHIO, September 22, 2016 – Celebrating and rewarding students for their hard work, and supporting student scholarships, are at the heart of the National Student Day photo-sharing contest, which runs Sept. 22-Oct. 20. The sixth annual National Student Day contest, sponsored by the National Association of College Stores (NACS), gives students the opportunity to win a $100 prize to their campus store and support a good cause.

High school and college students can enter the contest up to five times per person by simply snapping a selfie in their campus store and posting to a public Twitter or Instagram account with the hashtag #SMILEFORNSD. Students can also enter on the contest tab of the National Student Day Facebook page. For each contest entry received, NACS will donate $1, up to $5,000, to Scholarship America, the nation’s largest, private-education-support organization.

National Student Day, slated for October 13, 2016, is a day for campus stores across the U.S. and Canada to celebrate their students by hosting a variety of events.
