Academic Recognition Programs

Scholastic achievement, leadership, service, and character are recognized by Crafton Hills College through a variety of honors and awards.

Deans' List

A scholastic achievement list is prepared twice each year, once in the fall semester and once in the spring semester. Recognition is based on GPA earned during the individual semester, as opposed to cumulative GPA. The Deans’ List is comprised of those students who complete 12 or more units in a primary semester with a GPA of 3.5 or above. Only units earned at Crafton Hills College will be used in calculating a student’s GPA for the Deans’ List.

Graduating with Distinction

Students graduating with a cumulative GPA of 3.50 or above at the end of the term in which they have applied for graduation are recognized as graduating with distinction. These students will have a notation added to their transcript indicating such and are presented with a gold sash to be worn at commencement.

Graduating with Distinction is awarded to students who graduate with a cumulative GPA of 3.50-3.99.

Graduating with Highest Distinction is awarded to students who graduate with a cumulative GPA of 4.0.
