Earn your spot on the Dean's List
Dean's List Requirements
Each fall and spring semester, the Dean's List recognizes degree-seeking undergraduate students who completed at least 12 credits and earned a semester GPA of at least 3.5 for that term.
FAQ
When is the Dean's List published?
The Dean's List is published in late January for the fall and late June for the spring. There is no Dean's List for summer terms.
How will I be notified that I'm on the Dean's List?
Students will be notified via their campus email address that they are on the Dean's List.
I do not want my name publicly listed. Can I have it removed?
Yes! Email the Division of Undergraduate Education to have your name removed from the public listing. This will not remove the Dean's List notation from your transcript.
Is the Dean's List open to all students?
There is one Dean's List for all of IU Indianapolis. Only undergraduate, degree-seeking students are eligible for the Dean's List.
Does being on the Dean's List qualify me to graduate with distinction?
Not necessarily. The Dean's List is semester-specific and is different from graduation distinction. Find more details on graduating with academic distinction.
Can I get a certificate showing that I'm on the Dean's List?
Students are notified via email when they have been named to the Dean's List. The email serves as the official certification of Dean's List recognition, and a notation is also added to students' transcripts. There are no PDF or printed certificates. Students needing to submit certification of their Dean's List recognition to external entities may save the email as a PDF and provide that.
Based on the eligibility criteria, I think I should have been named to the Dean's List. Why am I not on it?
There are a few reasons you may not be on the list:
-
If you have an Incomplete (I) or Deferred (R) grade for the semester, they are not counted toward the 12-credit minimum requirement.
-
You have chosen to restrict the release of certain information to the public. In this case, you will still receive an email about your recognition, but you will not be included in the public listing.
If you have further questions, contact the Division of Undergraduate Education.
