Student Award

Where do you want to go?

You know you've got the talent, the ideas, and exactly what it takes to be the next big thing. But all you need is a break to make it into that top local agency, or better yet, that top overseas agency. YoungGuns can get you there.

The break you want.

One entry could change your life forever.

Be named "Student YoungGun of the Year" and get a 3 month paid placement with Leo Burnett Worldwide, and US$5,000 to help you get there and then prove yourself to the rest of the world.

All winners and finalists will be showcased at http://www.ygaward.com/, appear in the annual and form the YoungGuns Travelling Exhibition.

"I feel like I am still processing the fact that our little campaign even made the YoungGuns shortlist because of the amazing work that we were up against. As a young creative, I was extremely honored to be recognized with my partners. There is no greater feeling than knowing your work is appreciated somewhere.

As I get ready to start my internship at Leo Burnett Chicago, I feel this experience has motivated me to reach beyond expectation and truly strive for the dream career.

Thanks again to YoungGuns for this crazy roller-coaster experience that has changed my life."
