'America's Next Top Model': Meet the 'College Edition' contestants

tyra-banks-top-model-college.jpgWomen from schools ranging from a cosmetics institute to Harvard Divinity School will be competing on "America's Next Top Model" this season.

The "College Edition" of The CW's long-running reality show debuts Aug. 24, and it will feature new judges (Kelly Cutrone and Rob Evans), a new creative consultant (Johnny Wujek) and fan voting that will help determine who stays and who goes each week. And given the college theme, probably at least one photo shoot set in a library and Tyra Banks wearing glasses a lot.
