Join us for a virtual celebration to honor the 53 graduate and 38 undergraduate students named as 2025 LAF Olmsted Scholars.
With its $25,000 graduate and $15,000 undergraduate prize, the LAF Olmsted Scholars Program is the premier leadership recognition program for landscape architecture students. Help us celebrate these rising leaders and welcome them to the community of 1,254 LAF Olmsted Scholars named since the program’s inception in 2008.
The ceremony will feature presentations from a past scholar and the two 2025 national winners:

Meet the 2025 LAF Olmsted Scholars
The LAF Olmsted Scholars Program honors students with exceptional leadership potential who are using ideas, influence, communication, service, and leadership to advance sustainable design and foster human and societal benefits.
Now in its 18th year, the program recognizes one outstanding student from each accredited landscape architecture program in the US and Canada, along with the jury-selected graduate and undergraduate national award winners and finalists. (The 2025 winners and finalists are shown here.)
The LAF Olmsted Scholars are recognized for past achievements and for their future potential to influence the landscape architecture discipline.
Thank you to our Olmsted Scholars Program sponsors!
