The FAQ below is intended to answer common questions we receive regarding award applications and to explain the application process.
What information do I need to submit an application for an APS award?
You will need the following to proceed through the application process:
- the name of the award for which you wish to apply and
- the required application materials.
The application process cannot move forward if:
- your APS profile is not complete, (e.g., missing demographic information),
- you do not have an APS profile, or
- your profile does not match the criteria for the award you wish to apply for.
Why don’t I see the award for which I wish to apply?
- If you do not see the award for which you wish to apply, then the award is not currently accepting nominations.
Do I have to submit all my application materials at once?
- No, you may edit your application any time prior to the award deadline.
If you have any other questions, please contact us.
