College Survival Tips

 

Undergraduate students who achieve a semester GPA of 3.4 or better, with no grades of F, I, MR, or U for the semester, and are otherwise in good academic standing, are commended by the Department of Academic Success and placed on the Dean’s List. This list is posted following the fall and spring semesters for full-time students and following the spring semester for part-time students. Only those who complete 12 or more credits during the fall or spring semester (or fall and spring semesters combined for part-time students) are eligible. Students who include project courses in their 12 or more credit programs are also eligible, provided that these courses represent no more than one-half of the credit load for a given period and all of the aforementioned requirements are met. Students who include graduate courses in their 12 or more credit programs are eligible. Nondegree credit courses EN 1080 or EN 1090 may count towards the 12 credit requirement as 4 credits. The Dean’s List notation appears on the student’s permanent record. Students who convert a grade of I to a regular letter grade or receive a change of grade after a given semester that would then qualify them for the Dean’s List may retroactively receive Dean’s List honors by bringing the change to the attention of the Department of Academic Success; such grade changes must occur within one year of the end of the semester in question for Dean’s List eligibility to be maintained. Students who repeat a course in a subsequent semester, causing a grade to no longer be used in GPA calculation (see the earlier section on Repeating Courses), do not gain eligibility for the Dean’s List should the revised semester’s GPA rise to 3.4 or above.
