OUSTANDING SENIOR LEADERS

About

Pandora Yearbook’s Outstanding Senior Leader award honors senior students who have gone above and beyond in their commitment to leadership, academics, campus involvement, and community service. This distinction is given to students who have upheld the traditions of UGA while making positive contributions to the greater Athens community. Winners of this award are recognized and honored for the legacy and last impact they left at UGA.

Students who earn this distinction are given a one page spread in the yearbook highlighting their accomplishments and contributions to UGA. In addition to this, they participate in a professional photoshoot for university publication, receive invitations to be recognized at the Student Organization Achievement Awards, and are provided with a free copy of the yearbook. 

Application Process

Students in their final year at UGA are invited to apply for the OSL award. Applicants for the 2024 OSL award must be graduating in May 2024 or December 2024. Winners are chosen by a panel of judges comprised of UGA faculty and staff. Selection is based on a comprehensive application detailing the candidate’s achievements and involvement in the community.
