Capping a banner year in the classroom for GW student-athletes, one that saw Athletics' own Jonquel Jones deliver the Commencement Address at graduation exercises on the National Mall, the George Washington University Department of Athletics earned a 3.43 GPA in the spring semester, bringing the collective mark in 2024-25 above a 3.4 as well after a 3.39 cume mark in the fall.
87 members of the Athletics Class of 2025 graduated last month, after ceremonies that included the annual Senior Honors Toast, and the glitz and glamour of The Georgeys, where truly a great time was had by all. The Class of 2025 goes out having led a department that achieved a GPA of 3.25+ in each of the last eight semesters.
These accomplishments come on top of a 94% graduation rate and 15 GW programs with a perfect single year Academic Progress Rate of 1,000. In the spring, 41 student-athletes earned a 4.0 GPA, while just under 55% notched a GPA above a 3.5. As a team, women's tennis led the way with a 3.77 team mark, followed closely behind by women's swimming & diving with a 3.71.
GW also had 290 student-athletes recognized on the A-10 Commissioner's Honor Roll.
The university's student-athletes are supported academically by Assistant Athletics Director James Hellekjaer, teamed with Natalie Ellard, Stephen McNamara, Joe Strickland, Leah Fishman and Bryn Boznanski, as well as many academic tutors
