At the end of each fall and spring term, students with up to the five (5) highest term GPAs in each class are named to the Dean’s List. No more than 15% of any class (15 students in a class of 100) can be named to the Dean’s List. If the number of potential students who might otherwise be named to the Dean’s List exceeds 15% of the total regular class enrollment, the upper limit of eligibility is lowered until the total number of eligible students falls below the 15% cap.

For example, if 7 students have the highest GPA, seven students have the second highest GPA and seven students have the third highest GPA, only the first 14 students are named to the Dean’s List, to stay below the 15% cap of 12 students.

Alternatively, if one student has the highest GPA, one student has the second highest GPA, two students have the third highest GPA, one student has the fourth highest GPA, one student has the fifth highest GPA, five students have the sixth highest GPA and four students have the seventh highest GPA, only the first six students are named to the Dean’s List, in order to stay within the top five (5) highest term GPA limit.

Dean’s Lists are not calculated for the fourth year as the majority of D4 courses are graded satisfactory/unsatisfactory.
