Outstanding Undergraduate Scholar Awards Celebration

The Outstanding Undergraduate Scholar Award celebrates the top 1% of undergraduate students who achieve academic excellence while also giving back to the community through civic or volunteer work, by conducting research, or being engaged in a co-op or work in their field of study. 

The RIT Outstanding Undergraduate Scholars Awards will be held on Thursday, March 21, 2024 at 5:00 p.m.  Students awarded with this distinction have completed at least 83 credit hours of study and have a cumulative grade point average of at least 3.85 for university work completed as of last year’s spring term. The event includes an awards ceremony and reception (immediately following). Both the awards ceremony and the reception will be held in the Gordon Field House and Activities Center on the RIT campus. 

If you are unable to join us in person, the ceremony will be live-streamed. The link for the live stream will be available on the day of the event on this page.
