-- Have at least a 4.5 (A = 5.0) cumulative grade-point average for all work taken at the University through the academic term prior to graduation, and
-- Rank, on the basis of his or her cumulative grade-point average (including University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and transfer work, if any) through the academic term prior to graduation, in the top 3 percent of the students in his or her college graduating class.
Transfer students, in addition to meeting the general rules for qualification, must satisfy two additional requirements: they must have cumulative University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign grade-point averages as high as the lowest ones listed for students in their colleges who qualify on the basis of having completed all of their work at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign; and they must earn 40 or more semester hours at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign through the academic term prior to graduation.
For the purpose of this award, college graduating class means all students receiving bachelor's degrees from the same University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign college between July 1 of each year and June 30 of the next.
For the purpose of this award, academic term prior to graduation means: for August graduates, the preceding spring semester; for October graduates, the preceding spring semester; for January graduates, the preceding summer session; for May graduates, the preceding fall semester. The list will be determined each year after grades for the fall semester are available. To be considered in the calculation of University Honors, all grade corrections must be recorded by the end of the eighth week of the spring semester.
