Awards

Each year, NASPA honors prominent higher education and student affairs leaders, programs, and initiatives for contributions and impact on the field. NASPA members are encouraged to nominate outstanding colleagues and stellar programs at the international, national, and regional levels for consideration as an award recipient in a NASPA award program. 

Annual, Regional, & Division Awards

Nominations for annual national, regional and division awards are entirely online. A complete listing of national award categories, as well as the online nomination form, are accessible in the NASPA Annual and Regional Awards section. Any NASPA member may nominate an individual for national NASPA awards. Please complete the online nomination process for each nominee. The deadline to submit a nomination for a national award is November 1, 2009.

The seven NASPA regions annually recognize individuals within their respective territory. For information on NASPA regional awards, please visit your  regional webpage. Individuals making nominations are encouraged to view past award recipients to ensure the individual they would like to nominate is not a previous recipient of a particular award. Previous award recipients are ineligible to receive the same award more than once.  

The NASPA Community College Division presents national and regional awards to individuals who have demonstrated leadership and a commitment to the association and/or the profession. The deadline to submit a nomination for the national Community College Professional Award is November 1. Deadlines for the regional Community College Professional Award vary by region. Please check your respective region's website.
