Note
  1. ^ Certain award groups do not simply award one winner. They acknowledge several different recipients, have runners-up, and have third place. Since this is a specific recognition and is different from losing an award, runner-up mentions are considered wins in this award tally. For simplification and to avoid errors, each award in this list has been presumed to have had a prior nomination.

Betty White achieved numerous accolades during her acting and comedic career. Her major competitive awards include five Primetime Emmys, a Daytime Emmy, a Grammy Award, and two Screen Actors Guild Awards. Her honorary awards include the 2009 Screen Actors Guild Life Achievement Award, the 2010 Britannia Awards Charlie Chaplin Award for Excellence in Comedy, and the 2015 Daytime Emmy Lifetime Achievement Award.
