University of Alberta graduates lead with purpose. Help us continue the tradition of celebrating their significant contributions and the amazing difference they make in the world. You can nominate a friend, family member, colleague or former classmate for an Alumni Award in one of five categories. 

An Alumni Awards nomination consists of two parts:

1. Nomination form

Your nomination should clearly define the achievements of the nominee. You'll include details about how you know them, their background as it relates to their accomplishments, what makes them unique and exceptional and how their achievements meet the criteria of the chosen award category.

• Nominating a large group (5+ nominees)? Please email alumni.awards@ualberta.ca before you begin. 

2. Two (2) letters of support and FOIP agreement

You'll need to ask two people to write letters of support for your nomination. Ideal supporters are people who can personally comment on the specific achievements, contributions and the impact of the actions of the person nominated. Collect the letters from your supporters and upload them as part of your nomination. There is a section at the end of the online form to upload files (PDF, Word). You will also need to collect signed FOIP agreements from each supporter and upload with the letters.
