<p>If you are nominated for a NCTE but do not win, should you still put 'nominated for NCTE' or something like that on your app?</p>
<p>Would colleges find that impressive or would they just look at the fact that you didn't win?</p>
<p>I second that.</p>
<p>Bump...</p>
<p>FYI the ncte is a prestigious writing award, only two kids from my school were nominated and in my state only 26 can win.</p>
