								Policy statement
The university recognizes a student who
				has earned high academic achievement. Baccalaureate students graduate with
				scholastic distinction on the basis of the higher education (overall) grade
				point averages. A student's higher education grade point average includes all
				course work taken at all regionally accredited postsecondary institutions of
				higher education, including the university of Toledo "UT." The higher education
				grade point average is unadjusted by the grade point average "GPA"
				recalculation policy or the academic forgiveness policy. The higher education
				GPA will be used for purposes of determining eligibility for university,
				collegiate, departmental or professional honors and other recognition based
				upon the student's total undergraduate academic performance as documented on
				the student's official transcript. The higher education GPA is not indicated on
				the student's university of Toledo official transcript.
These averages and the citation they
				merit on the student's degree are as follows: 3.3, cum laude; 3.6, magna cum
				laude; 3.9, summa cum laude. Students must have taken eighty percent of their
				course work on the regular grading system, minus any credits earned in courses
				where the student has no choice in receiving a pass/no credit "P/NC" grade, to
				qualify for honors.
Students graduating with an associate's
				degree will receive a scholastic distinction of "high scholarship" if their
				overall GPA is a 3.3 or higher.
Transfer students should note that the
				university of Toledo will include all course work taken at all institutions of
				higher education in the calculation to determine if a student will graduate
				with honors. All college course work taken is computed in determining
				eligibility for graduation with honors, although no student will be awarded a
				level of honors above that indicated by the university of Toledo cumulative
				GPA.
Note: the university of Toledo requires
				a minimum of thirty semester hours of standard letter-graded courses from UT in
				order to qualify for graduation with honors.
