<p>does anyone know the requirements to make the dean's list at dartmouth? what gpa do you need, and how many terms must be completed?</p>
<p>top 5% every year. I think it should be around 3.9
I'm not quite sure, but I must have seen it on the student handbook.</p>
<p>I don't think that there is a deans list (or at least I have not seen any thing about Deans list in the ORC, the student handbook or searching through Dartmouth's website)</p>
<p>there is however a Honors list:</p>
<p>*At the close of the spring term an Honor List is calculated for all the classes, based upon the work of the year starting the previous summer, and divided into three groups; to be included, students must have been enrolled for at least two of the terms, have received at least five regularly recorded grades (i.e., other than CT, NC, or NR), and have no standing of Incomplete in any course for the year. The regulations of the following three paragraphs apply:</p>
<p>An eligible student with annual average exactly matching or exceeding the annual average of the lowest standing of the previous years top 5% of eligible students will be placed in the first honor group (i.e., will be designated as a Rufus Choate Scholar) for the year.</p>
<p>An eligible student with lower standing but with annual average exactly matching or exceeding the annual average of the lowest standing of the previous years top 15% of eligible students will be placed in the second honor group for the year.</p>
<p>An eligible student with lower standing but with annual average exactly matching or exceeding the annual average of the lowest standing of the previous years top 35% of eligible students will be placed in the third honor group for the year.</p>
<p>Approximately January 1 in the current academic year the annual averages for the past academic year of all the eligible students of that year (as defined in the first paragraph) will be examined and the lowest annual averages for the students in the top 5%, top 15%, and top 35% will be determined. These values accordingly govern the placement in honor groups for 2005-2006. Preliminary examination suggests that the required averages will closely approximate, in descending order, 3.93, 3.80, and 3.62.</p>

<p>I hope that this helps</p>
<p>thank you to both of you.</p>
<p>haha, if Dartmouth ever needs a new webmaster, I nominate sybbie. she knows that website like nobody's business. thanks for the great link.</p>
<p>Poor me, I fit into none of these three...</p>
<p>Thanks Saila,</p>
<p>I must confess, I found the information in the big ORC book but I was too lazy to type all of it, so I just did a search using the topic from the ORC</p>
<p>Dartmouth definitely needs a more user-friendly website! Perhpas sybbie can take them to task.</p>
<p>WOW grade INFLATION!! In 2001-2002 top 5% was a 3.83, top 15% was a 3.73, and top 35% was a 3.51. Not fair...</p>
<p>where and when (specifically) can one find these three lists?</p>
<p>if you are referring to the lists of students who achieved summa cum laude, magna cum laude, and cum laude for this year that information was published in the commencement program.</p>
<p>Thank you ursdad, do you know where one can find honor lists for each non-graduating class?</p>
<p>i do not. maybe sybbie can help with that information.</p>
