Diploma with hono(u)rs Explanation: Also, the second version is all right too: eg. 'TO OBTAIN A DISTINCTION' - this is what was found in my dictionary as well, meaning literally 'to obtain a diploma with honours (again)'. |

Diploma with Distinction Explanation: The first variant (Honour) is too literal. Besides sometime ago I consulted my old friend from Cambridge University and he was wholeheartedly for Distinction (Distinctions as a variant). |

Diploma Cum Laude Explanation: This Latin phrase is commonly used in the U.S. and is, I believe, a pretty good equivalent. It's awarded for a cetain Grage Pt. Average. You might be safer using "w/ Distinction", but 'cum laude' would be easily understood, too -- at least in the States. |
