Commencement Honor Cords
University of Michigan-Flint undergraduate students may walk in commencement ceremonies with honor cords if they have applied to graduate and have a 3.5 GPA. Courses in progress are excluded from GPA calculations. Eligible students completing their degrees in August may choose to participate in either the April or the December ceremony. 

Honors are officially posted to the transcript and diploma based on the GPA calculation following the final audit and degree conferral. Walking with honor cords at commencement does not guarantee honors will be posted to the transcript and diploma.

Typically Honor Cords are distributed at an Honors Convocation or Commencement Ceremony.
