Latin Honors RequirementsHonors Grad

Eligibility for the three levels of Latin Honors is based on the grade point average in a student's final 60 graded credits at the University of Minnesota-Twin Cities (transfer credits are not included). The GPA in these 60 graded credits, along with meeting the UHP requirements, qualifies the student to be considered for the following Latin Honors Graduation Levels:

  • cum laude 3.5 GPA or higher
  • magna cum laude 3.66 GPA or higher
  • summa cum laude 3.75 GPA or higher

All students pursuing Latin Honors must complete an Honors Thesis consistent with the level of Latin Honors they are attempting.

All students graduating with Latin Honors at the University of Minnesota-Twin Cities must meet the residency requirement of 60 graded credits on the UMTC campus.
