Dean’s List calculations are based on courses that have finished (been graded) by the end of the traditional semester.

Provost's Honors
The Provost’s Honors program invites high achieving and highly motivated students to engage in Honors coursework while also completing the basic curriculum assigned. For students who achieved a 3.5 or higher cumulative GPA with at least 12 semester hours of college coursework completed, honors coursework is designed to enrich and expand the expectations of each participating traditional post-secondary level course. Students who want to participate in the Provost’s Honors program must complete an Honors Contract and submit it.

Academic Fraternities
Two academic fraternities at Gateway recognize academic excellence: The National Society of Leadership and Success (NSLS) and Phi Theta Kappa. Students are invited to join the NSLS in Fall semester based on achieving a 3.0 GPA or better. NSLS members receive leadership certification, participate in discussions and attend presentations by some of the nation’s top speakers. Phi Theta Kappa membership is open to students enrolled in an associate degree program at Gateway who have completed 12 credits toward their degree and have a cumulative GPA of 3.5 or higher.
Graduation Honors & Awards
In addition to the Provost’s Honors program mentioned above, there are two other categories of graduation with honors for students who complete an associate degree or technical diploma. Students who earn a 3.750-3.899 GPA receive District Honors, and those who earn a 3.900-4.000 receive the distinction of President’s Honors. Additionally, the Graduate Scholastic Award is presented along with an honorary medallion by the college’s provost to the graduate with the highest GPA in their program.
