Big Ten Faculty Representatives established the Distinguished Scholar Award in 2008 to complement the Academic All-Big Ten program. Distinguished Scholar Award recipients will need to have earned Academic All-Big Ten recognition within the earlier educational yr, will need to have been enrolled full time on the establishment for all the earlier educational yr (two semesters or three quarters) and earned a minimal GPA of three.70 or higher through the earlier educational yr, excluding any summer time grades.

The Academic All-Big Ten threshold is a cumulative GPA of three.00 or increased for a student-athlete’s educational profession.
