Academic Honors

 
 

Each semester, General College recognizes and honors students with distinguished academic performance by placing them on the University of Minnesota Dean's List or the General College Scholars List. Both groups of students receive a letter of congratulation and have their names posted in a display case in the main hallway of Appleby Hall. Students named to the Dean's List also have that honor noted on their transcript.
