The President's List recognized 9,496 students who achieved a perfect 4.0 grade point average across all seven university colleges. Meanwhile, 22,920 students secured a place on the Dean's List, which requires a 3.5 to 3.99 GPA for undergraduates and a 3.7 to 3.99 GPA for master's degree candidates. Eligibility for these honors requires passing grades, adherence to the student code of conduct, and completion of a minimum credit threshold over the previous six months.
University of Phoenix Honors 32,416 Students for Academic Excellence
A total of 32,416 students earned spots on the University of Phoenix President's and Dean's Lists this semester, marking a significant milestone for a population largely composed of working adults. The recognition highlights high-achieving learners who balanced rigorous academic requirements alongside professional, family, and caregiving responsibilities.
John Woods, provost and chief academic officer, noted that the achievement is particularly notable given the competing demands of the student body. Data indicates that 75.4% of the university's students are employed, and 63% manage active caregiving duties. Students like Madison Snow, a human resources professional pursuing a bachelor's degree, and entrepreneur Dereka Hines, highlight the rigorous discipline required to maintain such standing while managing full-time careers and personal obligations. The university maintains support systems, including flexible scheduling and its Life Resource Center, to assist these learners in navigating their degree programs.
