well, if I get in my parents (and loans) are paying for it, so they’ll ask and I’ll tell them as its their investment.
Hornet and others, the requirement is for 16 hours of graded work, I believe, to be on the Dean’s List. My D got straight A’s last fall but needed to drop a course for health reasons so she only had 12 hours and therefore wasn’t on the dean’s list that term. It did help her GPA though! They get a nice postcard (I have 3!). But I also agree that she’s had a few profs who announce first class that they rarely give A’s.
