Valedictorian and Graduate Honors Society process

Valedictorian and Graduate Honors Society process

While the tradition of Detroit Mercy valedictorians calls for academic excellence, a minimum of 3.70 GPA, as well as instructional involvement, the role additionally calls for a graduate who has a meaningful message.

Application and nomination forms for this year’s Valedictorian are now available online.

Note: Valedictorian applications will be accepted through Monday, March 2, 2020.

Students prepared for graduation in May or August 2020 with a minimum GPA of 3.30 may also apply to join Kappa Gamma Pi, the graduate honor society focused on leadership development.

Kappa Gamma Pi applications can be found online.

Note: Kappa Gamma Pi applications will be accepted through Friday, Feb. 28, 2020.

Additional information regarding process details can be found on the Dean of Students Office website.
