Dean List

<p>My GPA is going to be above 3.5. do i have a chance to be on the dean list? is it important?</p>

<p>You’re on the deans list. It’s just everyone with a 3.5 or higher. </p>

<p>Expect an email!</p>

<p>For importance, I guess it depends if you’re applying for grad school or not. I don’t see too much importance for my personal situation, since in engineering future employers look at your experience with just a glance at grades. I don’t plan on going to graduate school either.</p>

<p>I really wish uw had a deans list & a president’s (3.8 or higher every quarter) list like at seattle central community college. I liked getting both of those recognitions every quarter.</p>

<p>so uw don’t have such a thing!</p>

<p>I believe they do.</p>

<p>uw ony has a dean’s list… no president’s list
My GPA every quarter at UW has never fallen below a 3.8, and I only get a dean’s list on my record and letter</p>

<p>if you google uw dean’s list this comes up
[Dean’s</a> List and Dean’s Letters](<a href=“http://www.washington.edu/students/gencat/front/Deans_List.html]Dean’s”>University of Washington Office of the Registrar)</p>

<p>if you google uw president’s list, it just gives you the same link for the dean’slist</p>

<p>edit:
(btw i just re-read my original comment on here…in case there was confusion, there is a dean’s list, just no president’s list…i was just saying it sucks that uw doesn’t have BOTH types)</p>

<p>That’s great Travelgirl,</p>

<p>What is your major? have u been invited to any honor societies here at uw?</p>

<p>Above a 3.8 should merit Phi Beta Kappa as long as it’s in a Liberal Arts discipline.</p>

<p>I don’t qualify for PBK yet as I need to have accumulated 75 UW credits first…
And Xavi is close, the GPA requirement is 3.77</p>

<p>@travelgirl:</p>

<p>My understanding from a PBK friend is that it’s the top 10% of your Senior Class or top 5% of your Junior Class. So the number 3.77 could change from year-to-year. If that helps.</p>

<p>A tough fight, but well worth it.</p>
