Undergraduates who are graduating with honors should order honor cords from the Bookstore to wear with their academic gown. Decide whether to order an honor cord based on your current cumulative grade point average including all transfer coursework. Grades for the semester will not be posted until after the Commencement Ceremony. The University has established these GPAs for honors recognition:
| Cum Laude | 3.50 |
| Magna Cum Laude | 3.70 |
| Summa Cum Laude | 3.90 |
The 3 X 5 card included with your cap and gown has space for you to indicate your honors recognition. Honors designations apply only to undergraduates. UWF does not have a graduation honors program for graduate students. Your grades for the semester will be included in your final GPA and appropriate honors will be posted to your degree based on your complete record at UWF.
