York County Community College (YCCC) recognizes students who achieve a high level of academic success each semester by including them on the Dean’s List. The criterion for this recognition is a minimum grade point average (GPA). This threshold typically requires students to maintain a GPA of 3.5 or higher while being enrolled in a specified minimum number of credit hours.
The Dean’s List serves as an important academic milestone, acknowledging students’ dedication and hard work in their studies. It provides several benefits, including enhancing a student’s academic record, potentially improving scholarship opportunities, and serving as a point of pride for the student and their family. Historically, such honors have been used to motivate and reward academic excellence within educational institutions.
