Honors listed in the commencement program will be estimated if your degree is not yet awarded and may change based on your final grades and cumulative GPA when your degree is awarded.

Undergraduate students who complete 60 or more credits at CSP and meet the following GPA requirements will earn Latin honors:

• 3.6 – 3.74 Cum Laude
• 3.75 – 3.89 Magna Cum Laude
• 3.9 – 4.0 Summa Cum Laude

Undergraduate students who complete 59 or fewer credits at CSP and meet the
following GPA requirements will earn honors:

• 3.75 – 3.89 with Distinction
• 3.9 – 4.0 with High Distinction

Any honors earned at the time your degree is awarded will be printed on your transcript and diploma. If your degree is awarded after the commencement ceremony and your estimated honors changed, you may request to exchange your medallion or pin by contacting the Registrar’s Office at 651-641-8233 or [email protected].

Yes. The Registrar’s Office will review student records for degree awarding after final grades are posted to the student record (one week after the end of the term). This process can take 2-3 weeks.

The university prints diplomas monthly and sends a congratulatory email once that process is completed. An official transcript can be used as proof of degree. We highly encourage you to check your unofficial transcript prior to requesting the official.

Diplomas will be mailed to the permanent address on your student record.

CSP Administration is determining dates for the 2026 ceremonies and will place dates on the website by December 22, 2025.
