Should you place your GPA on your resume? Once you have been out of school for five or more years your GPA becomes less relevant to an employer. Be wise, you should not list your GPA on a resume at all if it was below 3.0. 4.0 is an acknowledged achievement, this number can be listed forever.
Always list any honours received with the degree including Dean’s List, Phi Beta Kappa or Cum Laude. These are significant distinctions, be proud and display them on your resume.

Letting you know what I think is much more satisfying if you let me know what you think. Please comment.
