Baccalaureate honors at graduation<\/h1>\n

Latin Honors for the commencement ceremony are calculated from your current cumulative GPA. You can view your cumulative GPA from your unofficial transcript, which you can access through your LOUIE<\/a> Student Center.<\/p>\n

To obtain baccalaureate honors, you must complete 30 or more credit hours at Northern Arizona University and have an exemplary GPA.<\/p>\n

Appropriate GPA thresholds will be college specific. GPA thresholds are recalculated for each calendar year using data from the preceding five years.<\/p>\n

For each graduation period, Summa Cum Laude will be awarded to candidates whose cumulative GPA meets or exceeds the five percent threshold for their college.\u00a0 Magna Cum Laude will be awarded to candidates whose cumulative GPA meets or exceeds the ten percent threshold for their college, and Cum Laude to candidates whose cumulative grade point average meets or exceeds the 20 percent threshold for their college.<\/p>\n
