GREAT Awards

The GREAT (Graduate Recognition for Excellence, Achievement, and Talent) Awards have been held in Washington, DC every year since 2004.  They serve as the premiere showcase on Capitol Hill for presenting graduates of APSCU member institutions who have succeeded both academically and professionally despite often overwhelming odds against them.  We are proud to honor these graduates as part of our Hill Day activities, giving our membership and Members of Congress the opportunity to meet these amazing individuals and hear their inspiring stories. 

Please see below for links to student profiles of previous GREAT Award winners.  For more information about the GREAT Awards, please contact Gregory Rovick at Gregory.Rovick@apscu.org

PSCUs open doors to many of the 13 million unemployed and 90 million underemployed Americans by providing a skills-based education. To remain competitive over the next decade, we must identify between 8 and 23 million new workers with postsecondary skills. PSCUs are a necessary part of that solution, having produced over 800,000 degrees last year alone.
