Cumberlands announces President's List for Fall '24 semester

In recognition of academic performance, the Office of Academic Affairs at University of the Cumberlands has announced the students named to the President's List for the fall 2024 semester. To be eligible for the President's List, students must be enrolled in at least 12 credit hours (a full course load), maintain a minimum cumulative grade point average of 4.0 for the semester, receive an "A" grade in UC Engage, and be in good academic standing.
