Graduating with a 4.0 GPA

Undergraduate students with an overall 4.0 GPA are eligible to receive a University medallion on a crimson ribbon. Students must have a 4.0 on all OU work and on any work transferred from other institutions. They may wear the medallion during Commencement and Convocation exercises. In addition, their names will be listed in a special section of the May Commencement program, and they will be invited to attend a special medallion presentation by President Boren.

Students who qualify will be notified by their degree-recommending college. The Graduation Office will provide information regarding the presentation by President Boren. Presentations are held during the fall and spring semesters. If students are unable to attend the presentation, they may pick up their medallions in the Graduation Office (Cross Center B, Ditmars House, Room 136). All 4.0 medallion students are also eligible to wear the gold Academic Distinction hood or the crimson Honors College hood with their gown which may be purchased for an additional fee when you purchase your cap and gown at Graduation Gear-Up or through the University Bookstore.
