The College of Liberal Arts and Sciences is pleased to recognize the scholarship and achievement of our students graduating in May 2025 with distinction and honors.
Friday, May 9, 2025

Congratulations to students in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences graduating in May 2025 with distinction and honors!

High academic achievement is recognized upon graduation in three ways: graduation with distinction, based upon grades only; graduation with honors in the major, based upon both grades and the completion of an honors project approved by the college and the major department; and graduation with university honors, based on grades and completion of a formal curriculum of honors coursework and experiences. 

To be eligible for graduation with distinction, students must complete a minimum of 60 semester hours in residence in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, of which at least 45 semester hours must have been completed before the student’s final registration.
