RANKING POLICY
Class Rank Antonian ranks only the two top students in their class for the purpose of college admissions, special programs, and/or scholarship services. Other students are not ranked because these students would be ranked higher if they were in less competitive and/or larger schools. It is not equitable to compare by rank students who are in a small and highly selective private school with students in another less selective and/or larger school. Please consider class rank based on a student’s grade point average as follows:
GPA of 100 or higher: Number 1
GPA of 97 to 99.99: In top 10%
GPA of 88 to 96.99: In 1st quarter
GPA of 82 to 87.99: In 2nd quarter
