Each year, UNH faculty and staff at both campuses are given the opportunity to recognize outstanding full-time students enrolled in a degree program. This is your opportunity to nominate students who have achieved success in their academic studies, citizenship, and 
service to UNH and the larger community.

 
The UNH 2010 Student Awards Nominations site will be open on January 4, 2010.

Thank you.
