2026 JHM Awards

Every year, CUP holds the John H. McDonald Awards for Excellence in Student Journalism.

Better known as the JHMs, these prestigious awards recognize the very best in student journalism across the country.  

​

Nominations are open to all student journalists, regardless of CUP member status. 

 

CUP members receive two free submissions per category, and pay a sliding scale free for one subsequent submission after. Member papers cannot submit more than three submissions per category.

 

Papers will be invoiced seven days after submission for any additional entries by treasurer@cup.ca.

​

Invoices not paid twenty-one days after the submission was made will result in disqualification.
