Stage 2: Semifinalists

SEMIFINALIST NOTICE:  Due to a webhost error that caused the website to be only intermittently accessible over the past few days, some candidates have had trouble completing their research. To address this issue, THE DEADLINE HAS BEEN EXTENDED TO FEBRUARY 4th.


We are happy to announce that 30 authors have been advanced to the Semifinalist round (Stage Two) of this year’s competition.

Semifinalists are now invited to submit a 2500-word Essay based on their 500-word Proposal.   At least five, but up to seven (or more), top Essays will be selected for final judging by this year’s BERKELEY PRIZE Jury.

All authors, whether promoted to Semifinalist status or not, can login to view the Readers’ comments regarding your Proposals.
