Grenadian and other Caribbean students in the growing regional cohort continue to excel academically. More than 50 students from the sub-region were placed on the Spring ‘24 Dean’s List.
“The university sees the Caribbean as its primary area for building a successful international undergraduate programme,” University Provost Mark Mossman said. He noted the positive reports from the professors on their outstanding dedication to academics.
Grenadian students typically begin their studies online before completing them on campus in the United States.
