University Scholars
A full-time undergraduate student in a campus-based program earning a cumulative grade point average of no less than 3.60 for the previous academic year is recognized as a University Scholar at the Fall Convocation ceremony. An incomplete grade must be finalized by the time the list is presented to be eligible.

 Incomplete Grade or Change of Grade Statement for Academic Honors
A President and Dean’s List eligible recipient is determined at the conclusion of the academic semester. A student with an Incomplete is ineligible to receive an Academic Honor. Upon release, there is no additional monitoring. A student may inquire a notation on the student record with the Office of the Registrar in the event a change of grade elevates the semester grade point average to the established criteria.

Latin Honors
At the time of degree conferral, an undergraduate student will be eligible for Latin Honors, using only Norwich University credits when the following is met:

  • Summa Cum Laude honors = cumulative GPA of 3.8 to 4.0, or

  • Magna Cum Laude honors = cumulative GPA of 3.6 to 3.79, or

  • Cum Laude honors = cumulative GPA of 3.4 to 3.59.

Latin Honors for Commencement exercises are determined using the grades earned through the second to the last semester prior to the graduation date. The diploma and transcript will include the Latin Honor calculated at the time of degree completion.
