Maria Jose Rivero of Wellington was named to the Dean’s List at Boston University for the Spring semester. Each school and college at Boston University has its own criterion for the Dean’s List, but students generally must attain a 3.5 grade point average on a 4.0 scale, or be in the top 30 percent of their class, as well as carry a full course load as a full-time student.
Founded in 1839, Boston University is an internationally recognized institution of higher education and research. Consisting of 16 schools and colleges, BU offers students more than 250 programs of study.
With more than 33,000 students, BU is the fourth-largest private university in the country and a member of the American Association of Universities (AAU), a nonprofit association of 62 of North America’s leading research-intensive institutions.
