Do any of the big three list "honors" on the actual diploma?

[soliloquy]

This is such a superficial question but I wanted to know if COSC or any of the big three actually puts "with honors" or the like on your degree when you graduate. I just realized that I will have exactly 60 graded credits at COSC and as long as I get an A on the rest of my 4 classes, I will enough credits and a high enough GPA to graduate with honors.

Does anyone know? Thanks.

Excelsior College does, for associate degrees it will state the following:

Honors 3.5 – 3.74
High Honors 3.75 – 3.89
Highest Honors 3.9 and above

And for bachelors the following will be listed:

Baccalaureate Degrees (Latin Honors)

Cum Laude 3.5 – 3.74
Magna Cum Laude 3.75 – 3.89
Summa Cum Laude 3.9 and above

For Excelsior, keep the following in mind...

"Beginning with the conferral class of January 2009, associate degree graduates who have earned at least 30 graded credits and baccalaureate graduates who have earned at least 60 graded credits are eligible for Academic Honors designation. All graded credits that are applied toward the degree, including transfer credit will be taken into account when calculating the overall GPA."

I just graduated from Excelsior College with a BA in Liberal Arts, with a 3.7 GPA and over 60 graded credits. My diploma says Cum Laude on it.

Thank you for that info. I think COSC does not give Latin honors so that's really cool that Excelsior does. Just a word of advice and I don't know if this would affect you or not, but I do some of the hiring at my firm and there are people who have graduated c** laude and put it on their resume and I failed to receive it because our email spam thought cum was a derogatory word. I believe they refer to it as the ScunThorpe problem.

At any rate I'd like to see what the other schools do

That is so funny lol.

However, COSC doesn't list honors on their diplomas they do list honors on their transcripts:

Baccalaureate Student Honors

Charter Oak State College Honors for baccalaureate students who have taken a minimum of 30 credits in Charter Oak courses and have earned a 3.5 or higher for those credits.

Honors in General Scholarship to those baccalaureate students who have earned a minimum of 60 graded credits and have attained a GPA of 3.5 or higher. Students who are eligible for both will be awarded Honors in General Scholarship.

Associate Degree Student Honors

Honors in General Scholarship is awarded to associate degree students earning a GPA of 3.5 or higher with a minimum of 30 graded credits.

Note: "P" grades and credits are not a part of the GPA calculation, nor part of the calculation for honors.

Academic Honors - Charter Oak State College Catalog

A COSC alumni on the other forum posted his transcripts and they included honors, but not latin honors.

I wasn't going to pick up any extra classes just so I could graduate with honors but it just so happens i'll have exactly 60 when I graduate.
