2021 AAMC Group on Institutional Advancement Awards for Excellence

Submit Your Best Work for National Recognition

The Call for Submissions is now closed.
The call for submissions is now open! You’ve been responding to the pandemic and, at the same time, creating innovative campaigns, writing articles, organizing alumni and community events, revamping your digital presence, and, most important, demonstrating the value of your institution to your community. Gain recognition and reiterate to your leadership the importance of the work you do and the value of your impact.


Looking for guidance on what to submit? Here are some examples of what the judges want to see:

✔ Special campaigns you’ve completed—even on a shoestring budget
✔ Community engagement initiatives
✔ Influential writing
✔ Special events you’ve hosted for alumni or donors
✔ Print and digital publications
✔ And everything in between!


We’ve created Guidelines and Instructions and FAQ documents to guide you through the submission process and answer the questions you may have. Please note that there are some category and submission format changes in this year’s program. You can also check out past Awards for Excellence winners for additional inspiration.


Don't miss this opportunity to celebrate the achievements of your team and demonstrate the immeasurable value you bring to your institution and community.
