CHAMPAIGN, Ill. — The University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign has announced 9,005 Dean’s List students, 387 Bronze Tablet honorees and more than 12,174 degrees and certificates awarded for the 2026 spring semester.
Dean’s List eligibility is limited to the top 20% of a student’s college class or curriculum. To be eligible, students must complete at least 12 academic semester hours taken for a letter grade.
University Honors and inclusion on the Bronze Tablet are the university’s highest honors for graduating students. Honorees, who are the top 3% from each college’s graduating class, must have a total grade-point average of at least 3.5 (out of a possible 4.0), although in recent years an average as high as 3.9 was needed to make the list in some colleges at Illinois.
The first Bronze Tablet, bearing 14 names, appeared in 1925.
