    Muliltiply each final course grade by the course credit hours then divide by the total credit hours.

    They do some other voodoo before/after that... Whenever I tried that calculation myself, the result was never the same as on my transcript.

    There is no Dean's List, as far as I know. If you are in the top 25% you will probably interview for the honor society though.

    is that the same way you do the calculations? multiply each course grade by the credit hours and then divide by the total?

    how about ICM credit hours?

    There is a Dean's list every semester that is usually 87 total for your classes that semester.
