Those outstanding undergraduate students who attain a grade point average of 3.5 or higher, with no grade of F, for all courses attempted while earning not less than twelve semester credit hours of academic coursework during the fall or spring term are included on the Dean’s List of Academic Honors. The Dean’s List is released at the close of each long semester. In order to provide the recognition these students have earned, the Dean’s List is distributed throughout the University community as well as by the News Bureau to various other media. (The twelve semester credit hours of academic course work may not include developmental hours. Developmental hours completed above the twelve academic hours will require the grade of A or B in order to have a student qualify for Dean’s list.) The Dean's List is not provided for summer terms.
Quality points are computed for a given term on the basis of term hours attempted. A course attempted, for grade point average purposes, is defined as one in which the student receives a grade of A, B, C, D, or F, excluding developmental courses. For grade point average purposes, the number of GPA hours attempted increases each time ...
Quality points earned are determined by multiplying the number of hours assigned to the course by the number assigned to the grade for that course. For example, the number of quality points for a three-hour course for which a B is earned is nine, i.e. 3 x 3 = 9. If there are any questions about how grade point averages are determined, please consult with an academic advisor .
The mark of “Q” is assigned to courses dropped from the thirteenth class day for a fall or spring semester, or from the fifth class day for a summer session, through the last class day but prior to any final exams being taken or course completion. Courses with the mark of “Q” will not be counted as courses attempted and will not be included in determining grade point averages.
The mark X indicates the student has not been able to complete the course because of emergency circumstances beyond the student’s control. Refer to the Registrar's website for explanation of X grade process.
Note: Class days are University class days (Monday through Friday), not the number of days an individual class meets. Class days are to be counted from the first class meeting of on-campus daytime courses as indicated in the Academic Calendar.
