South Orange, N.J. - Seton Hall Athletics is proud to announce that its student-athletes continue to display unprecedented academic excellence, once again setting a new department cumulative grade point average record. After the Fall 2021 semester, Seton Hall's student-athletes have combined for a 3.498 cumulative GPA, surpassing the end-of-spring 2021's 3.491. All 14 varsity teams both hold a cumulative GPA above 3.0 and posted a 3.0 GPA or higher in the fall semester.

In addition, 158 student-athletes made the Seton Hall Dean's List during the Fall 2021 semester, representing 58 percent of the student-athlete population. To achieve Dean's List designation, Seton Hall students must achieve a 3.4 GPA or higher during the semester.

"The fact that our student-athletes continue to set record GPAs every semester is both a testament to their work ethic and also this department's goal of recruiting the best and brightest. Congratulations to all our student-athletes, coaches, administrators, and especially our academic support staff, for all their hard work in making this possible."
