Each year, the Student Affairs Division honors the achievements of our registered clubs and organizations through the annual Mountain Cat Awards.  Registered groups nominate their members/advisors for various awards and the division provides an annual celebration.  

Also announced at this event are the recipients of the Real World Action Scholarships. 

The University of Pittsburgh at Johnstown is committed to providing students with a solid foundation for career and professional success.  Student Affairs team members work closely with students to guide them in areas including civic engagement and citizenship, career preparation, collegiate involvement, and community engagement. This commitment to real-world readiness extends to recognizing students for outstanding achievement in the form of Real World Action Scholarships.  Scholarships are awarded based on students’ class year:

  • Freshmen - $300
  • Sophomores - $300
  • Juniors - $1,000
  • Seniors - $2,000

All Awards and the links for nominations for the Mountain Cat Awards and Real World Action Schoarships are housed at this link! All awards are due on Wednesday, March 23 at 11:00 p.m.
