FARGO, N.D. - North Dakota State University student-athletes set another record in the classroom during an all-around impressive fall semester for the Bison.
NDSU had a record 121 student-athletes achieve a 4.0 semester GPA in the fall of 2022. That is 29 percent of the total population of 414 student-athletes.
Bison teams combined for a 3.424 semester GPA, continuing a trend of student-athletes outperforming the general student population, which averaged a 3.067. Women's teams averaged 3.562 and men's teams averaged 3.340.
Men's track and field recorded its highest GPA with a 3.608 and wrestling tied its program high with a 3.329 GPA.
Eighty percent of current NDSU student-athletes have a cumulative GPA of 3.0 or higher, and more than half of all student-athletes are at 3.5 or better.
The classroom accomplishments add to a successful fall season in competition, which included a women's cross country Summit League championship, a runner-up finish for men's cross country, and the NDSU football team's 10th national championship appearance in 12 years.
