Latin honors at Loyola Marymount University

Loyola Marymount University awards Latin honors against fixed GPA cutoffs: 0 for cum laude, 4.03 for magna cum laude, and 4.23 for summa cum laude.

The advantage of published cutoffs is that the goal is knowable in advance. At a percentile school the bar floats with the graduating class; here it does not, so you can calculate exactly what you need across your remaining courses.

Standing, honors lists, and retakes

On repeated courses: A non-repeatable course may be repeated only once (including withdrawals); the prior occurrence is excluded from cumulative GPA and earned hours (remains on transcript), and the latest grade is what counts.

The part students usually miss

LMU's published Latin-honors GPA cutoffs exceed the normal 4.0 ceiling (Summa >=4.23, Magna >=4.03), implying a weighted honors-GPA calculation rather than a standard unweighted scale — worth confirming directly with the registrar before publishing.

Frequently Asked Questions

What GPA do you need for cum laude at Loyola Marymount University?▾
0.00 for cum laude, 4.03 for magna cum laude, and 4.23 for summa cum laude. These are fixed institutional thresholds rather than class percentiles, so they do not shift with your cohort. Most schools also require a minimum number of credits completed in residence — verify that separately with the registrar.
If I retake a course at Loyola Marymount University, does the old grade still count?▾
A non-repeatable course may be repeated only once (including withdrawals); the prior occurrence is excluded from cumulative GPA and earned hours (remains on transcript), and the latest grade is what counts.
Can I rely on this number?▾
It applies Loyola Marymount University's published scale to the grades you enter, so for a standard letter-graded course load it should match. It will not account for transfer credit, courses excluded from the GPA by policy, or program-specific weighting. Your registrar's figure is the official one.
