umniah2013 Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 What type of awards should you include in your application? More specifically>> would you consider a certificate of Appreciation and Thanks an awards to be included? I have many certificates of Appreciation but I'm not sure if they should be included. I got them for things I did as a TA like: 1.participating in a campaign (related to students) 2. helping in organizing a symposium 3. teaching Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunpenguin Posted November 29, 2013 Share Posted November 29, 2013 I would avoid mentioning those when listing awards. Awards should be things like winning a contest or receiving a scholarship. Instead, the items on your list should be included on a list of your duties and accomplishments ad a TA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
umniah2013 Posted November 29, 2013 Author Share Posted November 29, 2013 oh..I see...Thank you so much for replying...I was starting to lose hope that anyone would reply. I'm an international student and the whole application process is new to me. The certificate of Appreciation was for Teaching excellence ... so should I put this under Achievements?

sunpenguin Posted November 29, 2013 Share Posted November 29, 2013 (edited) I think Teaching Excellence could go under Awards. Good luck with your applications! Edited November 29, 2013 by sunpenguin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
