Enter to Win a $1000 Dorm Room Makeover from Our Campus Market (OCM)!

THIS CONTEST IS CLOSED. PLEASE STAY TUNED TO FIND OUT IF YOU ARE THE LUCKY $1,000 OCM WINNER!

Hey there collegiettes! It’s that time again—bags are being unloaded, roomies are reuniting, textbooks are being purchased and dorms are being decorated. It’s back-to-school!

Here at HC, we know that our readers make up the savviest, most stylish students on campus, and that you want your dorm rooms to be anything but blah (who can blame you?). That’s why we’ve partnered with Our Campus Market (OCM) to host our first-ever Design Your Dream Dorm Pinterest Contest!

Don’t know OCM? Well consider it your new dorm-decorating BFF, as OCM (that stands for Our Campus Market) features a ridiculously huge selection of stylish, fun, and affordable (score!) dorm solutions and décor to help you create and personalize your perfect dorm room. There’s so much to choose from you’ll wish you had an even bigger dorm room to decorate (oh wait, we already wished that…). Think of Our Campus Market as your one-stop-shop for everything you could possibly need to decorate your dorm room (that means bedding, posters, dorm décor, you name it). Hmm… Her Campus + Our Campus? According to our calculations, that equals Collegiette Style Success ;)

The “Design Your Dream Dorm with OCM & Her Campus” Pinterest Contest is your chance to show off your supreme style and show us how you would deck out your ultimate dorm room. The best part (aside from the fun of ogling OCM’s products and playing on Pinterest)? HC and OCM will be giving the winner a $1000 shopping spree to OCM.com to make your dream dorm room a reality!

Here’s how to enter:

1. Follow Her Campus on Pinterest.
2. Follow OCM on Pinterest.

7. Submit the link to your finished board at HerCampus.com/DreamDorm (below) by September 26, 2012.
