EDIT: Thanks to a helpful comment I see why I was wrong.

    Top xx% may get “with distinction”. I held a 4.13 (capped at 4.0). I went on to teach at the institution for a few years after graduating as well. So I’ve spent a significant amount of time in academia.

    But because of the higher standard for grad schools, typically requiring a 3.0+ to stay active (rather than the typical undergrad 2.0), latin honors dont make sense if the whole grad year is basically getting them. So they’re not commonly issued.
