bySessions Staff| October 16, 2023

On October 16th 2023, it gives us great happiness to announce the Sessions College2023-24 Outstanding Graduate Awards.

In what has become a much-anticipated tradition, each fall Sessions College faculty and staff collaborate to nominate a group of outstanding graduates from the last year. The graduates come from a wide range of programs, from career certificate to BFA level, and they have one common denominator: We look for graduates who have gone above and beyond, inside and outside of class.

Which graduates have the quality of work and level of participation in their classes that shows their potential for future success as creative professionals?

In this new post-pandemic era, our selection committee enjoyed a difficult process, ultimately identifying ten award winners from Graphic Design, Web Design, Illustration, Digital Media, Digital Photography, and Marketing Design programs.

和2023-24 Outstanding Graduate winners are:

Samantha Nelson, Graphic Design
