DEGREE CANDIDATES
Vancouver degree candidates, see page 12
Note: An undergraduate student whose cumulative grade point ratio (CGPR) for four years is
3.85 will receive his or her degree summa cum laude; if the CGPR is 3.67, magna cum laude; if
the CGPR is 3.33, cum laude. Only weighted grades will be included in computing honors. Only
the credits taken at Fairleigh Dickinson University, a minimum of 54 credits, will be used in this
evaluation. These criteria apply to all undergraduate students entering the University as of
August/September 2006. Students enrolled prior to August/September 2006 will continue to be
evaluated under the criteria of the policy in effect when they enrolled.
Due to time constraints associated with the issuing of the program, the honors listed therein were
determined as of the end of the fall semester. The final listing for the commencement period will
include those honors earned as of the completion of the spring semester, and diplomas will reflect
this achievement.
This program does not represent an official list of certified graduates.
