The President’s Award is presented annually to outstanding students selected by a committee of faculty, students and administrators. Awardees exemplify academic performance, extra-curricular achievement, and service to the University. Recipients exemplify the highest attributes of leadership and personify Rider's mission to challenge students to think critically, communicate clearly and lead effectively.

The award is made possible by a gift from the Class of 1974. Other gifts over the years have augmented this, allowing the award to be sustained in perpetuity.
