Graduation with Honors

Beginning with students entering in fall 2004, to be eligible to graduate with honors, a student must have earned at least 16 course units at The College of New Jersey. These units may not include courses taken on a Pass/Unsatisfactory basis or Credit/No- Credit or additive credit or units earned through the College’s credit-by-examination process. Honors are awarded based on the cumulative grade point average as follows: 3.6–3.74 with honors (cum laude) 3.75–3.89 with high honors (magna cum laude) 3.9 + with highest honors (summa cum laude) Students graduating with honors will be sent an Honors Certificate after graduation when final cumulative GPAs have been computed and verified.
