Dean’s List
In addition to awarding degrees with honors, the College also recognizes excellence with the annual Dean’s List. The Dean’s List is promulgated at the end of the spring semester in each school of the College. To be eligible for inclusion on the list, a matriculated student must have an average in all subjects of at least 3.5 in a program of at least 12 credits per semester for two consecutive semesters of attendance as a full-time student, or at least 24 credits taken in a maximum of four consecutive semesters as a part-time student. P (Pass) grades and credits are not included in the calculation.

To be eligible for Latin Honors, students must have completed at least 56 credits at Baruch College. The scholastic index includes only the courses taken at Baruch College. There are three levels of Latin Honors:
