 ## Eligibility
 First, you must have an approved PR for a macropad. It's okay if it hasn't been delivered to you yet! Just make sure it's merged
 
+## YOUR PROJECT IS ACTUALLY COMPLETE:
+- It has a complete CAD assembly, with all components (including electronics)
+- You have firmware present, even if it's untested
+- You have sanity checked your design with someone else
+- (optional) you have a 3D render of your project!
+
+## YOUR GITHUB REPOSITORY CONTAINS ALL OF YOUR PROJECT FILES:
+- a BOM, in CSV format in the root directory, WITH LINKS
+- the source files for your PCB, if you have one (.kicad_pro, .kicad_sch, gerbers.zip, etc)
+- A .STEP file of your project's 3D CAD model (and ideally the source design file format as well - .f3d, .FCStd, etc)
+- ANY other files that are part of your project (firmware, libraries, references, etc)
+
+## YOUR README.md FILE CONTAINS THE FOLLOWING:
+- A short description of what your project is
+- A couple sentences on why you made the project
+
+### PICTURES OF YOUR PROJECT
+- A screenshot of a full 3D model with your project
+- A screenshot of your PCB
+- A BOM in table format at the end of the README
+
+## Your keeb must also be shipped
+In short, shipping is process of **actually making your project sharable.** It's the most important part of your project, almost as important as the entire project itself
+- Documenting what your project actually is:
+    - A quick story/motivation on how the project came to be
+    - A description of what the project does
+    - A quick brief on how it all fits together
+    - Some pictures of the design
+- Making all files & resources easily accessible & organized
+- Putting it on a platform that's easily shareable (i.e github)
+
 ## Deadline
 Tentatively, the deadline is March 16th, but Feb 16th if you're only making a macropad. if you're making a full-sized keyboard. This may be extended, but it's unlikely
