Students graduating in residence are eligible for the Latin honors Cum Laude, Magna Cum Laude, and Summa Cum Laude under the following conditions:

Graduation with Latin Honors

Honor	GPA
Cum Laude	3.75
Magna Cum Laude	3.85
Summa Cum Laude	3.95

Only Baylor University residence credit will be considered in calculating these averages.  Credit by examination does not count as residence work toward honors.

For ceremony purposes, Latin honors are based upon the prior term GPA. Final Latin honors will be calculated once all grades are in and degrees are awarded. The most accurate information will be reflected on the diploma and the transcript.
