Honors and Scholarship Information

Information for undergraduate students

Students with an accumulated GPA of 3.5 or greater for the Fall 2023 term can wear a gold honor cord. Gold cords are available at the local outlets for academic attire.

Students who have excelled in their program may qualify to graduate with honors. Final honor awards will be calculated based on the final cumulative GPA after a student’s final term. 

Graduating with honors will be determined as follows: 

  • Top 5% (GPA) = Summa Cum Laude 
  • Next 10% (GPA) = Magna Cum Laude 
  • Next 10% (GPA) = Cum Laude

Students who achieve a 3.8 or above GPA will be recognized as receiving Dean’s Honors.
