St. Olaf Swimming and Diving Academic All-Americans
Academic all-American status is accomplished in two parts: First, the swimmer or diver must qualify for, and participate in, the NCAA National Meet. Secondly, he/she must achieve a cumulative grade point average of 3.5 or better (on a 4.0 scale). If a student meets a 'B' time standard, has a GPA at or above 3.5, but does not qualify for the meet, the athlete is named honorable mention.
