+# Dual Title Competitions
2
+
3
+Some events award more than one title at the same competition — for example, one Open title and one Closed title. Pageant Pass lets you list every title your event awards, and then each applicant chooses which title or titles they qualify for when they register. You set this up on the same form you use for [creating a competition](creating-a-competition.md).
4
+
5
+---
6
+
7
+## Before You Start
8
+
9
+You turn on dual titles while creating or editing a competition, so you'll be working on the competition form that slides in from the side. If you haven't made your competition yet, start with [Creating a Competition](creating-a-competition.md).
10
+
11
+---
12
+
13
+## Turn On Dual Titles
14
+
15
+The dual-title settings live in their own **Dual Title** section on the competition form, below the eligibility settings and above the entry fee.
16
+
17
+1. Open **My Competitions** from the menu.
18
+2. Click **Create New Competition**, or click an existing competition to edit it. The form opens in a panel that slides in from the side.
19
+3. Scroll to the **Dual Title** section.
20
+4. Turn on **This event awards multiple titles**.
21
+5. Two starter titles appear automatically — one marked **Open** and one marked **Closed** — ready for you to name and adjust.
22
+6. Click **Create Competition** (on a new competition) or **Update Competition** (when editing) at the bottom of the form to save.
23
+
24
+---
25
+
26
+## Name and Classify Your Titles
27
+
28
+Each title has a name and a classification. The **name** is what Delegates and judges will see; the **classification** is a tag that says what kind of title it is.
29
+
30
+1. Under **Titles Offered**, type the title's name in the first box — for example, *Miss Springfield Collegiate* or *Teen Title*.
31
+2. From the dropdown next to the name, choose the title's classification: **Open**, **Closed**, **Collegiate**, or **Festival**.
32
+3. Repeat for each title in your list.
33
+4. Save the form when you're done.
34
+
35
+Every title must have a name before you can save.
36
+
37
+---
38
+
39
+## Add or Remove Titles
40
+
41
+You can list as many titles as your event awards. You must keep at least one.
42
+
43
+1. To add another title, click **Add Title** below the list. A new blank row appears.
44
+2. Fill in its name and choose its classification.
45
+3. To remove a title, click the trash button at the end of that title's row.
46
+4. Save the form to keep your changes.
47
+
48
+---
49
+
50
+## How Delegates Choose Their Titles
51
+
52
+Once dual titles are turned on, applicants see a **Title Qualification** section when they apply. There they pick which title or titles they qualify for — they may choose more than one. You don't need to do anything to enable this; it appears automatically for any competition that awards multiple titles. For the applicant's view, see [Applying to a Competition](applying-to-a-competition.md).
53
+
54
+---
55
+
56
+## See Which Titles an Applicant Qualifies For
57
+
58
+On a dual-title competition, your applicant list shows each person's chosen titles so you can see them at a glance.
59
+
60
+1. Open the competition from **My Competitions**.
61
+2. On the **Applications** tab, look for the **Qualifies For** column. Each applicant's selected titles appear there as colored tags, with the color matching the title's classification.
62
+3. An applicant who hasn't selected a title yet shows a dash (—).
63
+
64
+This column only appears for competitions that award multiple titles.
65
+
66
+---
67
+
68
+## Change the Titles an Applicant Qualifies For
69
+
70
+If an applicant chose the wrong title, or you need to set it for them, you can adjust it yourself.
71
+
72
+1. On the **Applications** tab, open an applicant's actions menu and click **Edit Application**.
73
+2. In the panel that slides in, find the **Qualifies For** list.
74
+3. Check the title or titles the applicant qualifies for, and uncheck any that don't apply.
75
+4. Click **Save Changes**.
