About Us
Since 1983, Miss American Coed Pageants has awarded more than $10 million in scholarships and prizes to recognize and reward outstanding young women.
We help you become tomorrow's leaders. As we guide you through the steps of competition, you gain poise, self-confidence, and valuable communication skills.
We put an emphasis on academics, community and family as well as putting an emphasis on inner beauty and personality rather than the way a young lady looks.
American Coed Pageants is open to young ladies 3-22. We do not accept boys as some might think from the Coed in our name. Our name came from the All American College Coed.
Although we do not accept boys for the main pageant, we do have a Mr. Coed pageant, this is a fun on stage event where audience applause determines the winner and all proceeds go to charity.
