Latin Honors Eligibility

MMDC recognizes academic excellence among eligible students, including transferees. If you're transferring from another institution, you can still be eligible for Latin Honors provided you meet the following conditions:

• Course Completion: At least 80% of your program’s required courses must be completed at MMDC. 
• General Weighted Average GWA: Latin Honors are determined based on your General Weighted Average (GWA), which is calculated using the grades you receive in your courses at MMDC.

Latin Honors Criteria

• Summa Cum Laude: GWA of 1.00 ≤ GWA ≤ 1.25
• Magna Cum Laude: GWA of 1.26 ≤ GWA ≤ 1.50
• Cum Laude: GWA of 1.51 ≤ GWA ≤ 1.75

Achieving these honors requires academic excellence, and meeting the required percentage of courses completed at MMDC ensures your eligibility for these prestigious recognitions.
