granting academic honors
To be eligible for Latin honors, a student must be enrolled in an undergraduate program and meet GPA standards as stated below, as well as complete a minimum of 56 traditionally-graded credits at Augsburg. Transfer students should be especially aware of this requirement. Course credits earned from a grade of Pass or Low Pass do not count towards the 56 traditionally-graded semester credits unless they were earned as elected Pass or No Pass credits in Spring 2020. (Temporary changes to grading options were made available to students in Spring 2020 because of the COVID-19 pandemic.)
Latin Honors will be conferred upon completion of the bachelor’s degree and will be determined by the final cumulative GPA. Because the Latin Honors listed in the commencement bulletin are based on the current GPA rather than the final GPA, the conferred Latin Honors may differ from what was printed in the commencement bulletin.
