Honors
Latin honors are honors conferred at graduation on students whose achievements are above those required for the bachelor's degree. Latin honors are noted on students' diplomas and transcripts and in the commencement program when they graduate. Three levels of Latin honors are available to students. For the Biology Major, departmental honors will be awarded to students based on their grade point average.
| Latin Honor Conferred | Minimum GPA* |
|---|---|
| cum laude | 3.500 |
| magna cum laude | 3.700 |
| summa cum laude | 3.900 |
