Academic Honors
We celebrate our students’ academic accomplishments through a range of recognitions.
We take immense pride in our students' academic achievements, understanding that each one represents dedication, perseverance, and excellence.
As a testament to our commitment to nurturing and celebrating those successes, we offer a variety of avenues for nationally and internationally observed recognitions, including the Phi Theta Kappa International Honor Society for associate degree students, and the Golden Key International Honour Society for bachelor’s degree students.
We also offer our own college-wide recognitions, including our Dean’s List, and our annual Academic Awards.
Read on to discover more about how Landmark College recognizes and celebrates academic achievements, including details on criteria for inclusion.
Academic Awards
Each year, faculty members nominate students for Academic Awards based on the grit and accomplishments they witnessed.
These awards celebrate excellence in areas such as creative writing, career readiness, writing, liberal studies, art, psychology, computer science, media studies, business and entrepreneurship, communication, leadership, life sciences, and mathematics.
President's & Dean's Lists
In the Spring of 2024, Landmark College initiated a President's List to recognize and honor fully matriculated students who achieve exceptional academic success. This prestigious recognition is therefore reserved for students who have earned at least 12 graded credits of Landmark College coursework and who attain a grade-point average of 4.0 in a given semester.
Students achieving the Dean’s List complete a minimum of 12 credits with no grade lower than “B” in a given semester.
Golden Key International Honour Society
Golden Key is the international honor society for students enrolled in bachelor’s degree programs. The world’s largest collegiate honor society, Golden Key recognizes in its membership sophomores, juniors, seniors, and graduate students across all majors and disciplines in eight countries, in recognition of academic, leadership, and service excellence.
Students are invited to join if they have declared a bachelor’s degree, have earned a minimum of 24 credits, and have a grade point average of 3.5 or higher.
