Policies and Procedures

Students who carry a minimum of 12 graded semester units or students who have enrolled in all available units of scheduled coursework in a cohorted* program (CR/NC courses do not apply) and who achieve a GPA of 3.5 or better are awarded Dean’s List standing for that semester.

Students whose minimum unit load includes courses from The Tseng College may apply for Dean’s List standing if the Extension courses are required for the student’s major and if The Tseng College courses are taught by members of CSUN’s faculty. If a grade change brings a student’s GPA up to 3.5, the student may apply at the Office of the Registrar to have the honor awarded retroactively.

Students working on second undergraduate degrees or graduate degrees are not eligible for Dean’s List awards.

*A program in which a group of students, also known as a cohort, start the program together in the same semester and year, are enrolled in the same set of courses together each semester, and finish the program at the same time.
