The Distinguished Alumni Award is presented annually at the Metropolitan Community College Foundation Scholars Reception in the spring. Nominations are accepted throughout the year. Nominees who are not selected remain in the pool for five years from the nomination date. Applications are reviewed by a selection committee.

Any individual may nominate an MCC graduate for this award by submitting to the MCC Foundation office the following materials:

Individuals making nominations are also encouraged to supply additional materials including, but not limited to, newspaper or magazine articles about the nominee, publications or other materials produced by the nominee and additional letters of recommendation. No more than three separate documents, please.

Current members of the MCC Foundation Board of Directors, MCC Board of Governors, MCC Foundation, staff or any dependents thereof are ineligible to receive this award. Distinguished alumni awards are not granted posthumously.
