Gold stars are awarded to cadets and students who have earned a grade point ratio of 3.7 or higher.
Those cadets and veteran students will be recognized at the awards parade on Sept. 12, where they will be presented their gold stars, which they may wear on their uniforms throughout the semester following their academic achievement.
The Citadel will also honor veteran and active duty students who received gold star recognition with a black blazer, gold star pin and challenge coin.
A gold star recognition certificate is awarded to non-cadet students who meet the requirements.
