It is the time of the year to nominate a stellar student in your program for the annual ACTRPost-Secondary Russian Scholar Laureate Award - PSRSLA-2025. This award is an opportunity for instructors at two- and -four year college programs, including community colleges, to recognize a stellar student in their Russian language programs. For the parallel pre-college award, please see the K-12 tab on the ACTR website.

Last spring, thanks to the efforts of dozens of Russian program directors, coordinators, and lecturers, eighty two students received the ACTR Post-Secondary Russian Scholar Award-2024, including several students whose Russian-language programs participated in the nomination process for the first time. 

This year’s nomination deadline date is March 1, 2025. For guidelines on submission criteria, please visit https://www.actr.org/PSRSLA_Guidelines. Please note that nominations must be submitted electronically at https://forms.gle/vphtz6bnbfsoLhgd9. Only one nomination will be accepted per Russian language program. Award certificates will be mailed to nominators by April.
