Missed a minor Detail

So,
I forgot to mention that I received Cum Laude honors from my UG anywhere in my app or resume, is this something I should even bother mentioning as a single sentence in a potential future LOCI for a waitlist? How about in a scholarship negotiation? My GPA is obviously the same, and I don't think this matters, but I feel kind of silly for not realizing I had this (graduated 5+ years ago). I think the main reason I forgot is that I fell 0.05 short of Magna, and I was really disappointed in myself, and sort of felt I didn't get any honors.
I'll definitely make sure to include that in my resume in the future, but I'm not convinced it is worth mentioning retroactively.
