The Student of the Year Award is an initiative aimed at recognising, encouraging and rewarding student excellence at and beyond the Faculty of Economics and Business, University of Amsterdam.

Pre-selection has now finished and the voting began. As a student of the University of Amsterdam, you can vote for your favorite candidate here.

The award and nomination procedure is simple:

• Candidates fill in a short application form (before May 7).
  

• Two boards make the initial screening.
  

• Five candidates are selected (May 15).
  

• Students vote for the candidates.

• One student will win the Student of the Year Award! (June 20)

• Student of the Year wins a vacation to any destination around the world!*
  

Pre-selection for the Student of the Year Award covers three main criteria: academic, work, and social. We believe that being a student does not solely mean getting the best grade or partying the hardest. Being a student is also how much effort you make to contribute to the community, student welfare and society as a whole. We’re sure that you have what it takes to become the FEB Student of the Year 2012 and we would like to reward you for it!
