Nomination Process

• To be considered for the MacJannet Prize, programs first need to be nominated. Anyone can nominate a program - including their own. The programs must be based at Talloires Network signatory member universities. Nominations must be accompanied by a letter of support from the head of the university.
• The nomination form must be accompanied by a signed letter of support from the head (president, vice-chancellor or rector) of the university. We recommend that nominators begin the process of requesting this letter as early as possible. The Talloires Network Secretariat are available to address any questions or provide assistance with this requirement as needed.
• If your university is not yet a Signatory Member of the TN, you may still submit a nomination with the intent to become a Signatory Member. A letter of intent to join as a Signatory Member of the Talloires Network must be sent to talloiresnetwork@tufts.edu by March 25 to be eligible for the prize.
• A selection committee, including representatives of the Talloires Network and the MacJannet Foundation as well as international higher education community engagement experts, will review nominations and identify the finalists.
• Finalists will be contacted and asked to provide additional information, including contact information for faculty, students, and community members involved with the program and interviews will be conducted with one staff and one student participant.
• The selection committee review nomination materials, deliberate, and select one First Prize, one Second Prize, one Third Prize winner, and three honorable mentions.
