Honors at Graduation

“Eligibility for graduation with honors requires a combined grade-point average ( Berry and transfer work) of 3.5. Students must also have a 3.5 grade point average on work completed at Berry. Students whose combined cumulative grade point average ( Berry and transfer work) is at least 3.5 but less than 3.7 will be graduated cum laude; 3.7 but less than 3.9, magna cum laude; and 3.9 and above, summa cum laude.

Honors are determined on the Friday before graduation and include all graded work through the student’s last term in school. Courses that are graded S, H, or U do not affect the students’ grade point average and do not affect Honors designation. Honors information will be available at graduation rehearsal.

Application for Graduation

The Application for Graduation (AFG) should be filed with the Registrar’s Office by the start of 2nd 7 weeks of the term prior to the expected graduation term. Failure to file the AFG by this deadline, may result in a delay in graduation.

Graduation Fee

A graduation fee of $40 (undergraduate) and $60 (graduate) is charged each applicant for each degree. This fee for undergraduates will be added to the bill for the last term of residence. Graduate students will pay the fee at the time the application is filed. All financial obligations to the College must be discharged prior to the issuing of the diploma.
