Graduation with Honors and Distinction

Graduation with honors is granted to undergraduate students who achieve high grade point averages. Excellence is recognized at three levels cum laude (3.50 -3.64), magna cum laude (3.65-3.79), and summa cum laude (3.80-4.00).

Summa Cum Laude students will be awarded a gold honors cord to be worn during the commencement ceremony. Honors cords will be distributed through the Provost's Office beginning May 1, 2008.

For determination of eligibility, refer to the General Catalog.
