Graduation with Honors

Graduation with honors for undergraduates is based on all courses (including the last semester's work) for which grades and grade points are given. However, the honors shown in the Commencement program for May undergraduates are based on work taken through Fall Semester 1999. Since Spring Semester grades had not been reported at the time this program was printed,some modifications in the tentative honors shown will have to be made following the recording of the Spring Semester 2000 grades. To be eligible for honors at the end of the senior year, a student must have completed at least 45 hours of work in residence at UNCG, not including hours for which credit and grade points have been received by special examinations.

Honors are awarded to graduating seniors as follows. The highest level is summa cum laude (with highest honor), maintaining a grade point average between 3.90-4.00 for all work taken at The University of North Carolina at Greensboro. The next level, magna cum laude (with great honor), indicates an average of 3.70-3.89. The third level, cum laude (with honor), represents an achievement of 3.50-3.69.
