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.

Fall 2025 CSAA nominations open on July 21 and close on October 10. Students, faculty, and staff are encouraged to nominate a graduating student. Students can also self-nominate.

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.
