Dean’s List Criteria

Dean’s List Criteria

The Dean’s List at Kingsborough Community College recognizes the academic excellence of our matriculated students each academic term. In order to qualify for the Dean’s List, students must meet the following criteria for a given term (defined as 12-week session and 6-week module):

  • Be in good academic standing.
  • Earn 12 or more credits (developmental courses, transfer credits or e-permit courses are not applicable)
  • Achieve a grade point average (GPA) of 3.50 or higher for the term
  • All INC grades must be resolved before the last day to add/drop classes for the following spring and/or fall term to be considered.
  • Students who receive grades of D, F, FIN, R, NC, or WU are not eligible for Dean’s List.

Eligibility for Dean’s List will be based on the official grades recorded for the semester as of the last day to add/drop classes for the following spring and/or fall term.

Attainment of the Dean’s List becomes part of students’ permanent record and appears on their transcript. Students who meet the above criteria will automatically be placed on the Dean’s List. Students do not need to apply to be considered for this honor.

Please email DeansList@kbcc.cuny.edu if you have any questions or concerns about the Dean’s List criteria.
