Dean’s List

If your student made the Dean’s List for the fall semester, congratulations! UW–Madison recognizes the importance of these achievements. To be eligible for the Dean’s List, students must complete a minimum of 12 graded degree credits during that semester. Each school or college sets the GPA requirements for receiving this honor. Those requirements are listed on each school or college’s Web site.

In an effort to make the list more accessible, the registrar’s office recently launched this new, searchable Web site of honorees.

University Communications regularly sends out notices of Dean’s List honorees, as well as graduation announcements, to local newspapers across the state and country. In addition, UW–Madison also regularly distributes announcements of student awards and honors.

Announcements are typically sent to the largest circulation newspaper in the student’s home zip code and take six to eight weeks to process after the end of each semester.
