My List: A Different Kind of Review Contest is a program offered by The New York Times Learning Network. In the historical contest description, participants chose three to five works of art or culture and explained why others should or shouldn't check them out. It was a revamped version of the Student Review Contest, encouraging teenagers to become cultural curators; this is not a verified next-cycle submission rule. The linked 2024 contest page concerns the historical 2025 edition; it is not evidence of an upcoming application window.
Deadline check (2026-11-03): The original official contest page, the 2026 contest page, and the official contest directory could not be accessed during this check. The January 14–February 25, 2026 dates in the cohort notes are retained as historical catalog information and could not be independently reconfirmed from an accessible official source. The next contest dates and current submission requirements remain unverified; no 2027 deadline is asserted.
Cleanup checked November 3, 2026: the official 2026-27 calendar PDF does not list My List. That absence does not establish discontinuation or a future deadline. Generic Learning Network readership descriptions have been removed from contest eligibility. Current geographic eligibility also remains unverified, so the prior worldwide eligibility is not retained as a confirmed structured rule.
