Cursory googling (http://www.top-law-schools.com/forums/v ... 3&t=185872) reveals that it can sometimes take until july 9th. I haven't heard about honors yet and I know I'll get something, so make of that what you will.

Based on googling it looks like we should be finding out sometime soon. Follow-up question, do they notify us somehow if we get an honor or do we just have to check our transcript?

Honors are starting to show up on unofficial transcripts. Do not flip out if you do not see honors on your unofficial transcript--past experience shows that the school doesn't release them in one fell swoop.

Just for reference and for future people who are frustrated by the lack of information the school gives out:

3.62 was enough for cum laude.

I too hope this information is compiled somewhere to help future students. I've heard that the cum laude to magna cutoff usually ranges between 3.72 and 3.75. 3.75 this year was enough for magna.

I graduated with a 3.60, but still nothing -- could cum laude really be above that?

Just checked and I got my email about Allen on Friday, July 12 last year. It appears on your transcript and they email you and also snail mail you. So, my guess is maybe it will go up tomorrow.

I think McKay notifications may have gone out slightly before Allen, like maybe a couple hours.

FWIW and for posterity: 2L honors emails went out today, but they were available via transcript on Friday afternoon 7/11. 4.0 was good enough for Butler and 3.78 good enough for Allen.
