Honors Honors designations for the purposes of the commencement ceremony are determined according to the academic record exclusive of the last semester of attendance. Undergraduate students who have achieved a cumulative grade point average of 3.40 or higher will be provided an honors medallion, and will also have the honors designated in this program. Undergraduate students who achieve the honors designation following the completion of the semester are recognized through a notation on the diploma and their official transcript. The following cumulative quality point averages must be earned to achieve graduation with honors: cum laude 3.40, magna cum laude 3.60 and summa cum laude 3.80. Latin, the medieval language of scholars, is still used on the commencement program to keep with tradition in designating honors. * CUM LAUDE — with honor ** MAGNA CUM LAUDE — with high honor *** SUMMA CUM LAUDE — with highest honor ________________________ Kutztown University does not discriminate in employment or educational opportunities on the basis of sex, race, ethnicity, national origin, age, disability, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity, or veteran status.
