Providence College Students Named to 2013 Who’s Who Among Students in American Universities and Colleges

Providence, R.I. — Forty two Providence College seniors have been named to the 2013 edition of Who’s Who Among Students in American Universities and Colleges. The annual listing recognizes outstanding campus leaders nationwide.

Campus nominating committees and editors of the annual directory selected students based on their academic achievement, and exclusively those who have achieved a minimum cumulative grade point average of 3.85, in addition to service to the community, leadership in extracurricular activities, and potential for continued success. The Providence College undergraduates join an elite group of students selected from more than 2,000 institutions of higher learning in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, and several foreign nations. Outstanding students have been honored in the annual directory since it was first published in 1934.

Providence College is the only college or university in the United States administered by the Dominican Friars. The Catholic, liberal arts college has an undergraduate enrollment of approximately 3,900 students and offers degrees in 49 academic majors.
