The Anguilla Community College (ACC) recognized and awarded students who excelled in their academic programmes at their annual certificate presentation ceremony held on Wednesday November 13th 2013. In addition to those who achieved an A grade, special recognition was given to undergraduate students who made the Dean’s and President’s List as well as graduate students who received the Dean’s Commendation.
The Dean’s list, President’s list and Dean’s Commendation were established in an effort to recognize excellence in academic pursuit in the undergraduate and postgraduate programmes and to motivate students to aspire to academic excellence. Students recognized were pursuing Associate degrees in Hospitality and Tourism Management (HTM) or Business Studies (BS) or a Post Graduate Diploma in Education (PGDE). Persons are eligible for the list each semester.
THE DEAN’S LIST is calculated on a semester basis. Eligible students must:
• achieve a grade point average of 3.25 or above for the semester; a 3.25 GPA is just on the cusp of a B and a B plus
THE PRESIDENT’S LIST is finalized at the end of the academic year. Eligibility requires students to appear on the Dean’s List twice in the academic year
The persons awarded on the Dean’s list during the year are shown below
