BComm Gold Medal for Academic Achievement

This specially commissioned medal prize is presented annually to the recently graduated BComm IV student who achieves the highest academic marks based on their final year award. The award is confined to BComm students who have graduated during the preceding academic year and is given to the student who achieved the highest overall mark at their first sitting, as per their final year transcript. Where a student has received a waiver from the Appeals & Mitigation Committee in relation to the autumn examination sitting, they will also be considered. In scenarios where two or more students have achieved the highest overall mark in final year, the award is determined by the candidate that achieved the highest mark within the 40-credits of their chosen major in final year. If a singular judgement cannot be made based on these criteria, the student that achieved the highest mark in third year will be the award recipient. The selection of the Award recipient is made by a subgroup of the BComm Board of Studies with the recommendation approved by the CUBS Boards.
