Eligibility
PROFESSIONAL AWARDS
With the exception of the Communications and the Landmark Award categories, the official entrant must be a professional member of ASLA as an Associate, Full, or International member, or must be qualified to join ASLA in one of those categories. The non-member fee includes a one-year membership to ASLA.* For information on membership qualifications, click here, or call 1-888-999-ASLA.
The jury process is “blind.” In other words, the identities of the entrant and creative team are not revealed to the jury. Members of the Professional Awards Jury, as well as the firms, organizations, or agencies they represent are not eligible to enter the Professional Awards program. ASLA retains the right to disqualify any entry that does not meet the requirements or that presents a conflict of interest. In such cases, refunds will not be issued.
STUDENT AWARDS
The official entrant must be a member of ASLA in the Student or Student Affiliate categories, or must be qualified to join ASLA in either of those categories in order to enter. Official entrants must provide proof of registration as a student (such as a copy of a current student identification card). Student entries may be individual or team efforts. For all categories, all team members must be Student or Student Affiliate ASLA members in good standing (or must join ASLA) in order to enter. The non-member fee includes a one-year membership in ASLA.* A list of team members must be submitted with the entry form.
The jury process is “blind.” In other words, the identities of the entrant and creative team are not revealed to the jury. Members of the Student Awards Jury will recuse themselves from judging any entries with which they have a conflict of interest (for example, a juror who teaches in a landscape architecture program will not judge entries submitted by students from that program). ASLA retains the right to disqualify any entry that does not meet the program requirements or that presents a conflict of interest. In such cases, refunds will not be issued.

*The non-member fee provides a one-year membership to ASLA, including a subscription to Landscape Architecture magazine and ASLA Chapter dues. Non-members entering multiple projects may pay the non-member fee for the first entry and the member fee for any additional entries.
