Hokies in the Classroom! Maroon vs. White
MARCH - APRIL 2014 NEWSLETTER Hokies in the Classroom! We all know how great our Hokies are on the field and the court, but did you know they succeed in the classroom? Virginia Tech has a total of 512 student athletes competing in 16 sports. Of those 512 student athletes, over half earned a 3.0 grade point average for the Fall 2013 semester. Not to mention, 130 of those athletes made the Dean’s List, a special recognition from Virginia Tech, that semester. Pretty amazing, right?

Tech also had 17 student athletes with a perfect 4.0 this past Fall. That’s a lot of “Straight A’s”! It’s not just individual athletes doing well in school. Our teams, as a whole, are high acheivers, too! There are 12 Hokie teams that maintain a 3.0 or greater cumulative GPA year round. Leading the way this past Fall were the members of the Women’s Soccer team. Not only did the Women’s Soccer team make an appearance in the College Cup this season but they also maintained the highest team GPA average this Fall at 3.52. That’s winning on the field and off!
