Retroactive Inclusion on the Dean's List or Dean's Letter of Commendation for Part-Time Study

Request for Retroactive Inclusion on the Dean's List or Dean's Commendation
INTRODUCTION: Eligibility requirements for Dean’s List and Dean’s Commendation for Part-Time Students exclude any student who is assigned an Incomplete grade during final grading. Only students who were ineligible because they were assigned an Incomplete grade may initiate a request for retroactive inclusion for Dean’s List or Dean’s Commendation based on individual circumstances. Petitions are reviewed by the Undergraduate Academic Council’s Committee on Academic Standing. In order to have this request reviewed, the final grade of no lower than a C for the course must be currently posted on the student record.

The Committee on Academic Standing only reviews petitions during the fall and spring semesters.
