Student-Athletes Excelling in the Classroom
Despite the rigors and battles to maintain high GPA's, make solid progress towards one's degree, and balance a demanding practice schedule each semester, there are a few student-athletes who push themselves even more. In this section you will find a list of student-athletes who are pursuing double majors, dual degrees, dual Master's and Bachelor's degrees, and in some cases, Master's degrees alone - all while some are still eligible for competition as USC student-athletes. The NCAA requires that all participants in NCAA competitions be registered as full-time students at their host institution. For some, they finish their undergraduate degrees in 3 years and compete in their final year(s) of competition as full-time graduate students. We would like to congratulate all those who take advantage of their educational opportunities as Trojan athletes.
SAAS and the USC Athletics Department would like to honor and congratulate the following student-athletes for their achievements in the classroom.
