If a student is enrolled in an Honors College program, does that mean he/she will “graduate with honors?
The merit of graduating with honors is not linked to a student’s enrollment in an Honors College program but is based on the number of credits a student earns at Baylor University and his/her GPA. Students graduating in residence are eligible for the honors cum laude, magna cum laude, and summa cum laude under the following conditions: 94 credits earned at Baylor: Cum Laude: 3.75 GPA Magna Cum Laude: 3.85 GPA Summa Cum Laude: 3.95 GPA 61-93 credits earned at Baylor: Cum Laude: 3.80 GPA Magna Cum Laude: 3.90 GPA 60 credits earned at Baylor: Cum Laude: 3.85 GPA Magna Cum Laude: 3.95 GPA In addition, satisfactory performance on a specified comprehensive examination may be required to confirm eligibility for graduation with honors. Students earning a Baylor degree but taking the senior year in architecture, dentistry, forestry, clinical laboratory science, medicine, or optometry may qualify for graduation with honors if they have earned honors in Baylor and also in the professional program
