For any student-athlete, statistics help tell the story of their individual or team successes. For members of the 21 varsity intercollegiate sports at Saint Mary’s, one statistic stands out above all the rest — 3.11. That’s the overall SMU student-athlete grade point average for fall semester, as calculated by Saint Mary’s institutional research.
The university is proud of the accomplishments of our student-athletes on and off the field of competition. Of the 21 varsity teams, 16 boasted a team GPA of 3.00 or higher, with the women’s track and field (3.53) and the men’s cross country (3.43) leading the charge.
Of the 325 current student-athletes — who make up 25 percent of SMU’s full-time undergraduate population — 15 had perfect 4.0 GPAs, while 73 were named to the dean’s list with GPAs of 3.60 or above, and 182 finished the fall semester at 3.00 or higher. In addition, the men’s and women’s cross country teams earned U.S. Track and Field and Cross Country Coaches Association All-Academic Team honors.
