STUDENT ACCOMPLISHMENTS

We are proud to recognize students who have shown a commitment to academic excellence,
earning a semester grade point average of 3.5 or greater, with placement on the Dean’s
List.

The Dean's Circle Award is presented to graduating students who exemplify professionalism and academic excellence. This award was developed after the Wall Street Journal Student Achievement Award was discontinued. In 2017, the award requirements were broadened to include one graduating student from each major.
