Overall Average Honors

Upon degree completion, students are awarded degrees with honor as follows:

• Summa cum laude: 3.850 or higher cumulative grade point average
• Magna cum laude: 3.650 or higher cumulative grade point average
• Cum laude: 3.400 or higher cumulative grade point average

A student who has transferred academic credit to Hartwick College is eligible to graduate with honors only if the grade point average for the student’s entire college career, including grades received for transfer courses, falls into one of the categories above. In accordance with the Access to Release Educational Records policy found elsewhere in the catalog, students may request to view transcripts on file from non-Hartwick institutions at any time.
