ENTRY PROCEDURES

1. Entry forms are posted on the academy
website at www.emmys.tv the week of March 3,
2003. In order to expedite the entry process, it
is done in two stages: March 28th is the entry
deadline for all programs originally presented
between June 1, 2002 and March 28, 2003.
April 25th is the second deadline, for all
programs originally presented between March 29
and May 31, 2003.

2. Entries made at either the first or second
deadline may be modified by the entrant until
5:00 PM on May 31, 2003. An example of a
modification would be the replacement of the
episode chosen for judging by another eligible
episode.

3. Programs and individual achievements
unexpectedly scheduled for airing or in
preparation but not completed after the second
entry deadline (April 25) has passed may be
entered after that deadline (until 5:00 PM on
May 31, 2003). For example, a program
scheduled for a June airing that was rescheduled
for May after the April 25 entry deadline; or a
series episode that was in preparation (e.g., a
live episode of a late-night talk show) but
incomplete (e.g., an original airing of a heavily
PRIMETIME RULES AND PROCEDURES post-produced, special visual effects-filled series episode), may be entered.

4. To be eligible, a program must have its
"premiere" airing during the eligibility period.
This "premiere" must be the first airing and
promoted and reviewed as such. Preview
screenings which are aired late-night and are not
promoted or reviewed will not qualify as an
eligible "premiere."

5. Producers may enter their programs for
nominations in all categories. Individuals may
enter themselves (and their team, if the entry is
for a team achievement) for specific individual
awards.

6. Producers may submit one (or more) program
entry(s) per category or area. Eligible
individuals may submit one entry per category
or area. In the case where an eligible individual
makes an entry in a category or area and a
producer makes an additional entry for another
achievement by that individual in the same
category, every effort will be made to contact
the individual that unless he/she otherwise
directs the academy, his/her entry will take
precedence.

7. It is a general principle of this competition
that a single achievement is limited to a single bid for an Emmy, i.e., every entrant is eligible to
place his/her achievement in only one
appropriate category. Final approval of
category placement is determined by the
National Awards Committee.


8. In the case of team entries, entrants must
submit the complete team, not just themselves or
partial teams. Although an individual can make
only one entry per category or area, he/she can
be part of additional entries in the same
category if he/she is eligible with different team
members. In such cases, another team member
has to make the entry for the individual.

9. It is often the case that an agent, a manager, a
studio, a production company or a broadcast
entity will facilitate the entry by filling out the
form, but the individual who is listed as the
"eligible entrant" is considered by the academy
to be the person who has made the entry.

10. Producers may not alter an individual's
screen credit in order to qualify the individual
for Emmy eligibility.

11. Next of kin may make an entry on behalf of
a deceased relative.

12. Correct entry information is the
responsibility of the entrant. ATAS is not liable
for incorrect ballot listings that are the result of
incorrect information on the entry forms.

13. If an entry is made in the wrong category
and the error is not discovered until it goes to
the voters on the paper ballot, it will be
disqualified. If ATAS makes an error that leads
to the incorrect categorization on the paper
ballot, a correction will be issued.

14. Ineligible entries will be disqualified at any
stage of the competition.
