Hey Aska,

I finished my first year with a 3.53 GPA and I took 5 credits but the problem is I Credit\/No Credited two 0.5 courses (Both were astronomy) so does that mean I don’t qualify for Dean’s List? Technically speaking I completed five credits but the 3.53 is not a culmination of the five credits it is really just a culmination of 4 credits.

Please let me know!<\/p>\n

\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014<\/p>\n

hey there,<\/p>\n

well, putting aside the fact that we should all start focusing less on formal recognition of our achievements that just make us\u00a0more submissive to the daily grind<\/a> and try and find intrinsic motivators for success, i think you might just be in luck.<\/p>\n

according to the calendar, “[t]<\/a>his designation is given to degree students in the Faculty having a Cumulative Grade Point Average of 3.50 or higher, at the end of the Fall-winter or Summer Session in which the fifth, tenth, fifteenth and twentieth course taken for Faculty of Arts & Science degree credit, has been passed.<\/a>” credit\/no-credit courses count for degree credit, and they don’t specify that the CGPA has to be an average of every course you’ve taken, so i’m gonna say yes.<\/p>\n

if the dean’s list comes around and you find you’re not on it and you think you should be, you can definitely contact your college registrar for further information, but i think you just might find yourself on that magical piece of paper<\/a> very soon!<\/p>\n

cheers chum,<\/p>\n
