For any student award, a graduate student currently
enrolled in a degree program at the University of Cincinnati may
self-nominate or be nominated by the nominee's advisor or designee. For
the group award, any faculty or the group's current officer or

status with GSGA. Emphasis should be placed primarily on achievements
made while a graduate student at the University of Cincinnati, from 2008
onwards. The nominee or the nominator must submit the following in the

These letters of support highlighting the student's (or group's)

any level within UC. Letters of support should address the nominee's
relationship with the author, the impact that the group or graduate
student's action has had on the author or that the author has
first-hand knowledge of, and any other information that author believes
is pertinent. These letters should detail how the graduate student or
group has demonstrated the qualities of the category for which she/he
is nominated during the course of her/his graduate studies while at the
University.
4.) A current CV of the nominee is also required.
In case of a group, a list of activities with descriptions and impact.
All nominations packets should be

representative judging panels. All applicants/nominators must agree to
abide by the rules and regulations that the GACC deems appropriate. Past
winners of awards are ineligible to nominate themselves or be nominated
for an award in the same category as their win. Winners will be decided
in about two weeks from the submission deadline and personally
