Academic Recognition


Honors students at Ohio State receive recognition for the quality of their work-in and out of the classroom-beginning their very first year.

Outstanding students are honored by being selected to one or more of the major national academic Honors societies. Such recognition may begin with initiation into one or both of the freshman honoraries, Alpha Lambda Delta or Phi Eta Sigma, and may culminate when you are in election to Phi Kappa Phi or Phi Beta Kappa (Columbus).

Recognition of your completion of an Honors course is indicated on your transcript. Completion of a senior thesis is noted on your diploma with the designation, "graduate with distinction." Your college of enrollment may also bestow special recognition on your diploma. These distinctions include summa cum laude, magna cum laude, and cum laude distinctions.

In addition there are several recognitions specifically for Ohio State Marion Students:

Babich Writing Awards are given for the best paper written by a freshman or sophomore and by a junior or senior in a regular course.

Howard Honors Book Award is given to best students taking regular Honors courses.

Ohio State Marion Outstanding Undergraduate Student Awards are given to students for their academic achievement and leadership activities.

Hendricks Study Travel Award provides for study and/or travel and experience outside the state of Ohio, and preferable to a foreign country.

Wm Kay Davis Research Award is provided competitively to students conducting a senior research or thesis project.

The John Mount Academic Excellence Award is given to outstanding seniors who began university studies at Ohio State Marion and completed those studies on the Columbus Campus.

The Ohio State Marion Outstanding Senior Award is given to a senior at the Marion campus who completed at least 60 credit hours at the Marion Campus.
