Whereas, students who transfer to UAH can graduate with Honors based on their last 64 hours of coursework taken at UAH; and

Whereas, UAH's present policy on Graduation with Honors computes the student's GPA by "identifying the academic session containing the last 64 hours of coursework taken to fulfill degree requirements, and the GPA of all courses taken by the student at UAH to satisfy degree requirements during those terms will be computed;" and

Whereas, students who complete all, or most, of their degree requirements at UAH might have a higher GPA if all UAH coursework is included in the calculation; and

Whereas, we do not want to penalize students who complete the preponderance of their degree requirements at UAH;

Therefore, be it resolved that:
A student's GPA for Graduation with Honors will be computed based on:
I) identifying the academic session containing the last 64 hours of coursework taken to fulfill degree requirements, and the GPA of all courses taken by the student at UAH to satisfy degree requirements during those terms will be computed, and
II) identifying all credit courses taken at UAH to satisfy degree requirements and calculating the GPA of all of these courses. The student's status for Graduation with Honors will be based on the method of computation which yields the higher GPA.
