Queen’s University recognizes record number of Academic All-Stars
The Faculty of Arts and Science celebrates 166 student-athletes as all-stars
A total of 426 student-athletes have been named Academic All-Stars, including 166 from the Faculty of Arts and Science. These student-athletes have achieved an 80 per cent average (3.5 GPA) or above over the past academic year and compete on a varsity team or varsity club.
This is a record high number and places Queen’s among the top five schools in Canada for the number of Academic All-Stars.
“I am pleased and honoured to congratulate the 166 student-athletes from the Faculty of Arts and Science that achieved Academic All-Star status in 2019-20,” says Barbara Crow, Dean, Faculty of Arts and Science. “Achieving an average of 80 per cent or above while competing on a varsity team or varsity club is a tremendous accomplishment. This honour recognizes both athletic and academic achievement, reflecting Queen’s long-standing reputation of offering its students an exceptional educational and student experience. All of our academic all stars have displayed focus, commitment, discipline, passion, and teamwork, as well as academic and athletic excellence.”
Over 42 per cent of Queen's student-athletes were named Academic All-Stars this year. The varsity clubs with the highest GPAs were Women’s Ultimate and Triathlon, while the highest GPAs from varsity teams were from Women’s Basketball and Women’s Hockey.
