The 2011 SWFL MUN conference included 16 high schools and over 300 students. Each year a number of scholarships and awards are presented to the most outstanding students that participate. The student delegates are judged during their participation in the committee and council meetings, and, the position papers are evaluated and judged by a position paper committee. The scholarships are awarded based on the student performances over their years in the program; this is done on a point system basis. Following are the awards presented for the 2010 conference:
