Re: Latin honors cutoff for Fordham?
But those should be the numbers you're interested in, right? The GPA will differ from year to year, but if you look a multiple years you should a good idea of what GPA is needed for that % for your graduating class. (Also, the NALP link you provided is for 2007 (check the end of the url). You can just change the year in the url to see multiple years.)MoltenWings wrote:I checked, but it only gives the percentile and the "required GPA," which I suppose is the bare minimum for each cutoff.DocHawkeye wrote:This should be in the NALP directory, right?MoltenWings wrote:Magna is 10% and cum laude is 25%, but does anyone know the usual (hard) GPA honors cutoff for graduating class at fordham?

Re: Latin honors cutoff for Fordham?
just out of curiosity, is there any incentive for schools to hide their honors cutoffs? It seems like half of the schools out there don't release them. Makes no sense to me.

Re: Latin honors cutoff for Fordham?
Its very interesting that I just looked up 6 years of NALP records and every year says 25% for cum laude, but the Fordham website says 33.3%... Its actually somewhat important for me because hitting 25% would take something like a 4.0 semester which is probably not happening...

Re: Latin honors cutoff for Fordham?
Any educated guesses on what the GPA cutoffs will be for 2013?

Re: Latin honors cutoff for Fordham?
Nalp has it at ~3.5 but also says that's for 25% whereas the school confirmed the 33.3% cutoff...anchuldigs wrote:Any educated guesses on what the GPA cutoffs will be for 2013?
