NCCWSL
For 39 years, AAUW had the honor of bringing thousands of college women together from across the country for leadership training, inspiration, and networking at the National Conference for College Women Student Leaders (NCCWSL).
AAUW was home to the National Conference for College Women Student Leaders (NCCWSL) for 39 years. Starting in 2025, NCCWSL will move to our trusted friends at NASPA, the professional home for student affairs administrators in higher education.
AAUW will have a presence at the conference as a speaker, exhibitor, presenter and promotional supporter. However, NASPA will be responsible for the planning and execution of the conference moving forward. We’ll update this page with information about NCCWSL 2025 when it becomes available from NASPA.
Thank you for your support of NCCWSL and our country’s next generation of women leaders!
