Academic Honors
Honoring Excellence Across Campus
Cal Poly Pomona is proud to celebrate the academic merits of our students with the Dean's and President's Honor lists.
Graduating seniors may still earn a place on either the Dean's or President's Honor lists if they have a grade point average of 3.5 or better for completing 12 or more units during one semester. Their final semester may be 9 units if this is all that is required for graduation.
Dean's Honor's List
The Dean’s Honor List, announced at the end of each semester, honors undergraduate students who have completed 12 or more letter grade units during the semester with a 3.5 or better grade point average for Cal Poly coursework. Students taking preparatory coursework must obtain C (2.0) letter grades or better in their preparatory courses and make satisfactory progress toward completion of remediation requirements to remain on the Dean’s List.
Each student on the Dean’s List should be celebrated by the University with a minimum of a letter from the appropriate Dean and any further honors the college wishes to bestow.
President's Honors List
The President’s Honor list, announced at the end of the spring semester, honors undergraduate students who have a grade point average of 3.5 or better for completion at the university of 12 or more units during any two semesters of a university year.
