Academic Recognition
At the conclusion of each session, the Office of Student Affairs compiles the President’s and Dean’s Lists. The lists of qualifying students are given to the Director of Institutional Development, Marketing, and Public Relations for publication in newspapers serving the students’ home towns. A copy of the lists accompanied by an informational memo is sent to the President, Vice President for Instruction, Dean of Arts and Sciences, Dean of Workforce Development and Technical Education, Dean of Health Sciences, and Dean of Student Affairs & Enrollment Management. Pass/Fail and developmental courses are not included in the calculations of the grade point average for determination of the President’s and Dean’s Lists.
President’s List: The President’s List recognizes students who have achieved a grade point average of 4.00 for 12 or more semester hours completed in the fall or spring session or the equivalent number of full-time hours in the summer session. Qualifying students each session earn the honor of being placed on the prestigious President’s List for that semester.
Dean’s List: The Dean’s List recognizes those students who have achieved a grade point average of 3.50 to 3.99 for 12 or more credit hours completed in the fall or spring session or the equivalent number of full-time hours in the summer session. Qualifying students each session earn the honor of being placed on the esteemed Dean’s List for that semester.
