Nineteen students graduated with highest honors, summa cum laude, and maintained an academic average of at least 3.9 out of a possible 4.0;  25 students graduated with high honors, magna cum laude, and maintained averages of at least 3.7; and 51 students graduate with cum laude honors and maintained averages of at least 3.5 over their academic career.

College Honors were awarded to 11 students.  This special honor is given to those students who choose to pursue projects that go beyond the regular course work in an effort to develop the students' capacity to initiate and complete meaningful projects in their major field of study.

An additional 69 students participated in the commencement ceremony as either previous graduates or provisional graduates , those who received diplomas earlier than the annual May commencement ceremonies, or those who are sufficiently advanced so that graduation before the end of 2005 is possible.
