E. C. Hall Award

The E. C. Hall Award is made each year to the graduate student who completed the master’s degree program with the highest scholastic average. In the event that graduate GPA’s are equal, then GPA’s for the undergraduate work will be considered in addition to GRE and GMAT scores. The selection of the awardee is made by the Admission and Retention Committee of the Graduate Council.

 Procedure for Selecting Awardees:

Each committee member selects the best of three candidates and the common candidate from the list will be the final awardee. In the case of a tie, the committee will meet and select the final awardee.
