MODERATORS
It varies depending on the school. Most schools have a GPA requirement, such as cum laude >3.7, magna cum laude >3.8, and summa cum laude is >3.9.
For my associates a 4.0 was required for summa cum laude but that seemed uncommon. My bachelor's required the former system.
Yet some still just assign it based on top % of the graduating class. You can almost certainly Google, "Latin honors YourUniversityHere" and find it for a specific university.
