NOTE: This document was generated from the 1995-1997 UIUC Programs of Study. Every effort has been made to ensure accuracy, but be advised that requirements may have changed since this book was published. Errors may have also been introduced in the conversion to a WWW document. Thus for items of importance, it might be wise to seek confirmation in the paper version or from a live human being.
Invitations to membership are mailed to all eligible juniors and seniors, and an initiation program is held near the end of each semester.
To be eligible for Dean's
List recognition, students must complete successfully 14 academic semester
hours, of which at least 12 must be taken for letter grade (A, B, C, D, E,
AB). Only grades in hand at the time the list is compiled will be
considered in determining eligibility unless it can be established that the
final grade average will be above the minimum required regardless of the
grade eventually received; students with EX, DF, or missing grades will be
added as soon as letter grades are received and eligibility can be
determined. Credits earned during the semester through proficiency, CLEP,
and advanced placement examinations may
not be counted toward the 14-semester-hour
requirement.
Individual colleges may modify
the above criteria, and interested students should contact their college
offices for further information.
The College of Liberal Arts
and Sciences has different eligibility requirements, which are given in
detail in the LAS Student Handbook.
THE DEAN'S LIST
The names of undergraduates who
have achieved grade-point averages for a given semester in the top 20
percent of their college class will be included on a list prepared for the
dean of the college. (In the College of Fine and Applied Arts, the names of
eligible undergraduates who have achieved grade-point averages for a given
semester in the top 20 percent of all students in their
curriculum will be listed.) This list is publicized within
the University and is sent to news agencies throughout the state. Names of
James Scholars are preceded by an ampersand (&).
