The original deadline was September 18, 2026.
According to a statement issued by the GJA, the extension aims to allow members in good standing who have not yet submitted their entries to take advantage of the one-week extension. Eligible works include stories and other media productions from 2025. The GJA encourages members to submit their entries online through the GJA website using the 2026 GJA Media Awards entry form.
