Also, I think that if you get to the Candidates Matches, you recieve a GM
title if you don't already have one.  I don't think they have ever had to
apply this rule, though!  Oh, and I think that winning the World Junior
Championship gets one an IM title, but I am not certain.  There might
also be an IM title in getting to an Interzonal.

This is from memory from the Chess Competitors Handbook, so I may have
misremembered, or it may be out of date.  I don't know the current rules,
since I have never been in danger of having them apply to me!
