Latin honors at Pepperdine University

Pepperdine University awards Latin honors against fixed GPA cutoffs: 3.5 for cum laude, 3.7 for magna cum laude, and 3.9 for summa cum laude.

Fixed cutoffs are the friendlier system to plan against. You know the target from your first semester, and clearing it does not depend on how strong your classmates turn out to be — unlike a percentile system, where the threshold moves every year.
