The Chancellor’s Student Achievement Award (CSAA) is the most prestigious ACC award earned by a graduating student. Each fall and spring graduation, this award is presented to a student who has demonstrated academic excellence, service to ACC and the community, and commitment to ACC’s values and vision.

Students, faculty, and staff are encouraged to nominate a graduating student. Students can also self-nominate!

Spring 2026 CSAA nominations open through Friday, March 27.

The recipient of the Chancellor’s Student Achievement Award will receive a $600 award, a letter of recommendation from the Chancellor, and a plaque. In addition, the recipient is the first student to walk across the stage at graduation and will provide a brief remark to the graduating class.
