2027 Alumni Merit Award Nominations Now Open
Help Saint Louis University shine a light on the extraordinary alumni whose achievements, leadership and commitment to serving others deserve to be celebrated.
Nominations are now open for SLU’s 2027 Alumni Merit Awards, which honor living distinguished graduates from each of the University’s schools and colleges for their extraordinary accomplishments, dedication to their professions and commitment to the University's mission. Or, nominate a graduate for our Pioneer Award, presented annually to any living or deceased graduate who exemplifies SLU’s Catholic, Jesuit ideals, serves as a trailblazer in their field and has made significant contributions to pave the way for others.
Honorees are celebrated during commencement weekend and remembered as models of what a SLU education can inspire. Nominations are accepted from faculty and staff, as well as the community.
“Saint Louis University's Alumni Merit and Pioneer Awards showcase the finest achievements within the Billiken community,” said Annelise Pivin, SLU’s executive director of alumni engagement. “We are proud to acknowledge their exceptional contributions."
Review the award criteria or learn more. Nominations for both awards will be accepted through Nov. 13. For more information, contact Sue Ratz at susan.ratz@slu.edu.
