How would one say "I graduated with honors"

Hello, My name is Cameron and I am new to this board/site. I just returned from Nicaragua and I am going back shortly, so I am trying to brush up on my spanish (I took in college, but have seemed to forgotten a lot/all of what I learned.....AGGHHHH).

I was trying to compose a little intro about me for practice purposes and I looked up honors in this dictionary but I don't want to say a vague term......is there a correct/better way to say in Spanish "graduated with honors" or "Summa Cum Laude."

"Me gradué con honores" does not seem to make sense.......Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you, and I love this sight. Everyone has such great input!

You can say: "Me gradué con mención honorífica". "Mención honorífica" is a certificate that you get when you received the highest scores/grades from the whole class (you were the best or the top of the class).
