CONGRATULATIONS to the
2018 Annual International ACAC Awardees

General Membership Meetings

Annual membership meetings are held in conjunction with the summer and NACAC conferences.  Minutes for the most recent meeting are not approved by the membership until the following meeting. Minutes from past general membership meetings are available for review here.

Executive Board Meetings

The International ACAC Executive Board meets in conjunction with the summer conference and the NACAC conference. Between meetings, other business is conducted through virtual meetings and email communication.

Governing Documents

Two documents govern the running of the association. International ACAC has a set of Bylaws which provide the framework of our association. Changes to the bylaws require approval of the membership. The Executive Board also employs Policies and Procedures which provides guidance for the day to day running of our association. This manual, unlike the bylaws, can be changed by a vote of the International ACAC Executive Board. 

International ACAC Annual Awards

International ACAC annually recognizes individuals who have made major contributions to the college counseling and admission profession.

The Peter Hauet Lifetime Achievement Award

International ACAC established the Lifetime Achievement Award in 2002 to recognize an individual who has contributed to the profession in a significant and lasting manner. This award, which represents International ACAC's highest member tribute, is presented to an individual who, over a period of years, has performed outstanding service to International ACAC, to our profession, and to the international college counseling community. In 2015, the award was renamed in honor of Peter Hauet, upon his receiving the award during the 2015 International ACAC Conference. Peter was a founding member of our Association and served on the Executive Board for twenty-years. Sitting members of the International ACAC Executive Board are ineligible for this award.
