Honors in Graduation

At the time of graduation, students earning an associate degree or certificate will be recognized for sustained scholastic excellence by graduating with appropriate honors. Honors will be based upon a student’s cumulative grade point average on all non-developmental undergraduate hours completed in the semesters previous to graduation. If courses have been repeated, the last grade recorded will be used in determining grade point average. Honors are established as follows:

  • Summa cum laude: 3.900-4.000
  • Magna cum laude: 3.700-3.899
  • Cum laude: 3.500-3.699
