The 12th Cycle of America's Next Top Model may be hitting screens in March, but casting for its successor is about to kick off.  Ladies who have been vying for a chance to make their mark on the runway shouldn't forget January 31, since an open casting call for the CW network's hit reality series will be held on that date.  Reports have been confirmed that the event will take place at LIFE Grounds off highway 59 east, on that very Saturday. 

America's Next Top Model Cycle 13 is looking for females aged “18 to 27, of diverse backgrounds, shapes, and sizes and with a minimum height requirement of 5'7” tall.”  Those interested can pick up their applications at the CW Laredo studios, which is located at 120 w. Del Mar Blvd. 

Auditions for Cycle 12 occurred last year in July, as the network held a nationwide casting call.  Talent scouts made their way through malls, stopping on major cities across America to look for the next big thing in the world of modeling. 

The CW reality show has been quite a success, spawning 12 seasons and still counting.  After the variety of ladies seen on last year's America's Next Top Model, it's going to be exciting to see what's in store this March and on the next installment.  Aspiring models are sure to line up come January 31, when the series hits the streets once again in search of ladies who would be perfect to become contenders on the show.

While hundreds of hopeful girls flock the LIFE Grounds at the end of this month, viewers who are satisfied to watch the show will be glad to know that it's bound to return soon.  America's Next Top Model Cycle 12 will be airing once more on the CW, on the fourth of March this year.  Watch as a new batch of would-be-models surface, with only one emerging as America's Next Top Model.
