High Point University Book Award Criteria

High Point University continues its tradition of honoring high school students for their academic achievement, commitment in and outside the classroom and who honor a growth mindset through our Book Award Program. The award is a distinguished honor for sophomore high school students who not only show great academic and social prowess, but also model an intuitive growth mindset and demonstrated excellence inside and outside of the classroom. We seek nominations from counselors who believe this individual embodies stellar performance in the classroom, while also striving to make a difference in the community. This is an individual who leads by example, understands the importance of academic endeavors, and honors a commitment to improving today's community.
