Absolutely. List it under education. In other words list the college or university and note the honors. For example Rutgers University, graduated Cum Laude. You earned it, use it. Resumes are a time to toot your horn!
Actually, I believe the proper Latin would be Summa cum Laude. Yes, do capitalize Summa Cum Laude.
Correction by tworthington (not the original answerer):
NO. You do not capitalize summa cum laude. Additionally, it should be italicized.
You could say, "I graduated cum laude from UCLA." The words "cum laude" should be italicized.
That is the correct spelling of the phrase from Latin, cum laude (with honors).
I put my colleges under the education section of the resume and noted as below.
Name of university (from - to) Bachelor of Arts in psychology, graduate summa cum laude.
You typically include that in an awards and honors section on the resume.
You don't, you just list your GPA
No, "manga cum laude" should not be capitalized in a resume. It is not a formal academic distinction like "Summa Cum Laude" and does not require capitalization.
3.65-3.79 cum laude 3.80-3.89 magnum cum laude 3.90+ summa cum laude
Use lower case and italicize cum laude, magna cum laude and summa cum.
I graduated from Harvard Summa Cum Laude.
Summa cum laude is the highest distinction
Cum laude means 'with honor', magna cum laude is 'with high honor', and summa cum laude means 'with the greatest honor'. These designations are granted to every graduate who meets a required grade-point average, so several students in a class, or even an entire class, could graduate cum laude, magna cum laude, or summa cum laude. The valedictorian is the student with the highest academic rank in the class, so you would expect he would at least be a cum laude graduate. But if you have a class where no one has over a B average, there will still be a valedictorian but he will not be graduated with honors.
The highest level of honors is Summa Cum Laude, then comes Magna Cum Laude, and then Cum Laude. Thus, a grade point average (GPA) of 4.0 is Summa Cum Laude. Acutally, Summa Cum Laude starts at a 3.85 GPA. Still, different institutions have different requirements.
Summa cum laude is the highest it means "With highest honor"Magna cum laude means "With great Honor"Cum Laude means "With honor"
no
That is the correct spelling of the honor applied to a graduating student, summa cum laude (with highest honors).
loudi
Yes absolutely! You would place this under awards and honors.
