Miss Alaska

The Miss Alaska competition is a scholarship pageant that selects the representative for the state of Alaska in the Miss America pageant. Unlike most state-level pageants in the Miss America system, Alaska allows any eligible woman to enter the Miss Alaska pageant without first having to win a local qualifying pageant. Alaska's highest placement occurred in 1998, when Joslyn Tinker was selected for the top ten. One Miss Alaska won a preliminary swimsuit, and another won a preliminary night talent award. Several other delegates have received non-finalist talent awards and special scholarships.
