Nomination Guidelines
- Each dental school may nominate one senior dental student for the Bushee Award. Nominations must be submitted by a dean or faculty advisor, and only one nominee per school will be considered.
- Nominees must be current AAWD National members at the time of nomination.
- If the nominee is not a member, she can join as a Student Annual Member ($65) before the nomination is submitted through the AAWD website.
- Award recipients will receive:
- An upgrade to the Early Career Dentist membership level in June.
- A one-year extension to their current membership expiration date.
AAWD will mail a certificate to the nominator to present to the recipient at their discretion.
Checking Membership Status
If you’re unsure about your nominee’s membership status, please contact AAWD at info@aawd.org before submitting the nomination form. We’re happy to assist with verification or provide guidance on membership applications if needed.
We understand this adjustment may be new for some nominators, and we appreciate your understanding and support as we continue to celebrate and elevate the outstanding women in dentistry who are part of the AAWD community.
The deadline to submit your nomination is April 18, 2025.
Thank you for helping us honor and support the next generation of women leaders in dentistry. Your partnership is essential in creating a stronger, more connected community of women in dentistry!
