The bachelor`s degree is conferred with "Highest Honors" on seniors who obtain a four-year cumulative grade-point average of 3.9 or higher, with "High Honors" on those with an average of 3.7 or higher, and with "Honors" on those with an average of 3.5 or higher.
While honors are calculated on the basis of the student`s midyear cumulative grade-point average for the purpose of inclusion in the commencement program, final honors designations for the transcript and diploma are conferred on the basis of the student`s cumulative grade-point average at the end of the final term. For the purpose of calculating honors, averages are not rounded to the next highest number.
