It shows on your transcript...and yeah as stated above, higher chance of getting scholarships. Also potentially higher chance of getting considered for applications (e.g. grad school, jobs). Only indirect benefits... |

Yeah, you get a certificate. There's a ceremony, at least there was one for social sciences where you get called up to the stage to receive it from the dean and president.

Well, not all faculties have a ceremony... and you might have to actually go and pick up your certificate. I went with my friend to the faculty of science to pick up her friend's DH certificate just the other day. |

I don't think that happens in University, especially not after the grades have already been sent to the Registrar.
If there was a grading/input error, then that's a different story.

If you have 9.5 CA and above (30 units) - you are on it.

If you have a 9.5+ average, you are on Dean's List.
