Dean's List Recognition

The Dean's List is a recognition of academic excellence for undergraduate students. To be on the Dean's List, a UC student must achieve a semester grade-point average (GPA) of 3.4 or higher while enrolled in six or more undergraduate credits per semester. Dean's List recognitions are noted on a student's official transcript, at the bottom of each term (where applicable).

How can I see if I'm on the Dean's List?

If you are on the Dean's List for a given semester, you will see it indicated on both your official and your unofficial transcripts. Dean's List will be listed at the bottom of each term's statistics, under your credit and GPA totals.

The below text will be displayed if you meet the criteria.
