2.1.10 Deans' List

Policy

Undergraduate students who meet high academic standards, as established by the College of their major, are included in a Dean's List issued each semester. Students whose major does not place them in one of the six colleges that offer degrees are identified on the List of the Associate Vice President for Undergraduate Studies.

Deans' List Requirements

Eligible students must complete 12 or more semester hours.  Courses completed after the official end of the semester and courses taken with a Credit/No Credit option will not be counted for this purpose.  The Dean's List for the Colleges of Applied Science and Technology, Arts and Sciences, Education, Fine Arts, and Mennonite College of Nursing will include those students whose grade point average places them among the top ten percent of those students majoring within the College based on their semester GPA. The Dean's List in the College of Business will include only undergraduate students majoring in business who have completed 12 or more semester hours with an overall semester grade point in the top ten percent and an average of at least 3.33 for all courses taken during the semester; courses completed after the official end of the semester and courses taken with a Credit/No Credit option will not be counted for this purpose. Students whose major does not place them in one of the six colleges that offer degrees and whose semester grade point average is within the top ten percent of the University are identified on the List of the Associate Vice President for Undergraduate Studies.
