Since 2003, NEBHE has been recognizing individuals and institutions that make substantive contributions to improving higher education opportunities for New England students. We ask your assistance in identifying individuals, programs or organizations in the academic, government or business sectors that exemplify excellence in leadership, innovation and diversity in higher education.  Your nomination will help grant them the recognition they deserve.

Four recipients (three individuals and one organization or program) will be honored for their outstanding contributions to the region’s higher education community.  In addition, we will present six state merit awards, to individuals, programs, organizations or businesses from each of the six New England states that have strived to promote college readiness and success.
