<p>thatgirltoo, you are incorrect. For L&S, you must meet the following criteria to be on the Dean’s Honors List (taken verbatim from the L&S website):</p>
<p>-13 or more units completed on a letter-graded basis for the semester
-GPA for semester must be in top 4% of L&S undergraduates (GPA normally about 3.85)
-No I, NR, or NP grades, or courses for which no grades have yet been submitted for the semester</p>
<p>So, a semester 4.0 on 13 units and 1-2 P/NP (given that you passed these units) <em>would</em> get you on the Dean’s List for L&S.</p>
<p>tastybeef, that’s really surprising that only 40 people were at the University Medal reception. Given the slew of easy majors in L&S, you would think more people (out of a pool of 5500) would earn a GPA above 3.96.</p>
