Each year, distinguished alumni who embrace the university's values —character, citizenship, curiosity, and collegiality— are selected to be part of USCA’s Core 4.
Who is Eligible?
Individuals who have obtained an associate's, bachelor's, or master's degree from USC Aiken.
Alumni who have completed a substantial amount of coursework but did not graduate (ie…Engineering majors before that degree being offered at our campus, Banksia era transfer students, etc..) are also eligible for nomination.
Graduates and alumni must embrace the university values of character, citizenship, curiosity, and collegiality.
Self-nominations will not be accepted. Current Alumni Board members are ineligible for this award.
The Process
- Each year from October 1 - January 1, the Alumni Executive Board will collect nominations via the Core 4 Nomination Form.
- Nominations are reviewed, and eligible nominees are contacted to accept the nomination.
- Winners will be announced at USC Aiken’s Homecoming Alumni Reception. Plaques will be awarded during an on-court ceremony during the game.
To nominate alumni who exemplifies these values professionally and personally, please fill out the nomination form when it becomes available.
Thanks for your nominations! Remember to attend Homecoming to see which alumni are chosen for this award!
