The leaders honored at these awards are a true embodiment of Hofstra Pride. 

The Division of Student Affairs requests nominations for the Hofstra Student Leadership Awards from the entire Hofstra community: students, faculty and staff.  These awards are by online application only.

Bovenaan Award

The Bovenaan was officially created in the spring of 1953 by the Student Faculty Affairs Committee.  It aims to honor, by election into it, students whose co-curricular activity has been distinguished by variety and quality.  It purposely makes no distinction within the co-curricular area among athletic, social, fraternal, religious, dramatic, musical, or political, except to see that its elected members are active in more than one of these areas. *This award is by paper application only.

Who’s Who Among Students in American Universities and Colleges Award

Who's Who was established in 1934 and is awarded to outstanding campus leaders of the year and marks a pinnacle of scholastic achievement. Only students with senior status are eligible for this exclusive honor that is conferred by more than 1,000 schools in the country. Who's Who in American Universities and Colleges is one of the most highly regarded and longstanding honors programs in the nation, having earned the overwhelming respect of college faculty members and administrators. *This award is by paper application only.
