Following word that the requirements to the Dean’s List are changing this semester, the administration says there are no plans to change the requirements for College Honors. Students received an email alerting them of the change to the Dean’s List criteria from Dirk Killen, an associate dean in the College of Arts & Sciences at the beginning of the semester.

Recently, the College of Arts & Sciences decided to change the requirements for the Dean’s List for its students. Previously, students in the College of Arts & Sciences were only required to have a semester GPA of 3.5 in order to receive the honor for that semester. Starting in the current spring 2012 semester, the requirement will be a GPA of 3.6 in order for a student to make Dean’s List.
