Someone thought you might be a good candidate for National American Miss... attend one of our Free Open Calls to learn more about our program and if it might be a good fit for you!

Did you receive a letter inviting you to an Open Call and want to make sure it’s real? Trying to figure out if NAM is a "scam"? With over two decades leading the industry, you can be sure they we are real and that this is an incredible opportunity. If you are looking to learn more, you’re in the right place... this is the official Open Call information page for National American Miss.

Each season we travel across the country and, if you got a letter, we're coming to a city near you to meet girls and women ages 4-39 who are excited about building their confidence, performing on stage, showcasing their talents, or growing as a model in a supportive, empowering environment.

Whether you're brand-new or already passionate about the stage, no prior experience is required. Our Open Call program is built to help you learn modeling, public speaking, and interview skills in a fun, relaxed workshop before your State Pageant.
