red7tribe Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 I have a question about my CV. I was recently nominated for an award (best history paper in my university). My understanding is that I should not add this to my CV unless I receive the award. Am I correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glycoprotein1 Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 Congrats on the nomination! I personally would not include it unless very few people are nominated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMP Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 Agreed with the above. Let your adviser brag about it in his/her letter of recommendation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Septerra Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 I say no unless you receive something like "honorable mention." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AP Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 Correct. You only add stuff like this if you were runner up, honorable mention, finalist. And it depends on what. For a university prize I wouldn't include it unless you get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
