Recognizing outstanding achievement
The College of Arts & Sciences celebrates students who demonstrate outstanding academic achievement through two prestigious honors: Dean's List and Dean's Scholars recognition.
Dean's List

Dean's Scholars
Dean's Scholar status represents the pinnacle of academic success at the University of Louisville. These exceptional students achieve academic perfection by earning a 4.0 GPA while completing at least 12 graded credits, demonstrating unwavering dedication and mastery across all their coursework.
