On March 30, 2016 (Monday), the top performing students for Academic Year 2014 were presented with awards. The University of Aizu utilizes a Grade Point Average (GPA) system, and the top three performers from the undergraduate school are awarded. GPA is an internationally recognized standard for university grades, and a student's GPA is a major factor in landing a job, getting in to graduate school, and for studying abroad. (*1)
