Iris Booth Career Scholarship

During the Promotion Period
1. Go to an Iris Booth located at your Participating Institution and take a headshot photo. Use of the Iris Booth is free for eligible students at Participating Institutions. You must be enrolled at the Participating Institution at the time the photo is taken.

2. On each platform where you want an Entry, follow Iris Booth.
• On LinkedIn, follow the official Iris Booth company page (“Iris Booth”).

3. Post your Iris Booth headshot on the platform where you follow Iris Booth. Your post must:
• Include the required hashtag #IrisBoothScholar
• Tag the official Iris Booth account on that platform (Iris Booth on LinkedIn or @irisbooth on Instagram)
• Clearly show a headshot taken in an Iris Booth at a Participating Institution

You are encouraged but not required to mention or tag your Participating Institution or its career center or similar account.

Posts from private accounts that Sponsor cannot see will not be considered. You must be following Iris Booth on the platform used for your Entry at the time of entry and at the time of the prize drawing.

Limit one Entry per person per platform for the entire Promotion Period. This means you may receive one Entry on LinkedIn and one Entry on Instagram, for a maximum of two Entries in total. You may post more than once, but Sponsor will count only the first eligible post on each platform. Use of multiple accounts on the same platform to enter will result in disqualification.
