<p>Hello! I love writing and have won one national contest before; however, I know there are a lot of scams and was wondering what other legitimate poetry contests are out there.</p>
<p>I’d tell you but then there’d be more competition.</p>
<p>No, but actually, the Kenyon Review has a really good one, Scholastic, Princeton University has one… just google them.</p>
<p>Scholastic Art and Writing
Very Legit, although really large</p>
<p>And usually, the ones that are large and well known are more legit</p>
<p>The free contests definitely have a much lower BS rate, too.</p>
<p>Polyphony HS
Writer’s Digest Competition
Claremont Review</p>
<p>See if your school participates in the Reflections program. I know people who have gone very far with that.</p>
