University Honors Program

General Information

University Honors

Students who have completed 36 hours of honors course credit, or 33 hours that include at least 3 hours of Honors Independent Study, may qualify for graduation with University Honors. Each qualifying student must earn at least 6 hours of honors credit in the humanities, social and behavioral sciences, and/or visual and performing arts, and 6 hours in mathematics and/or natural sciences. A minimum of 12 of the 33-36 honors hours must be taken at the advanced (300-400) course level. With sufficiently high scores in Advanced Placement (AP) courses, a limited number of college credits from those classes may be applied to the requirements for University Honors (maximum of 12 college credits) and for Foundation Honors (maximum of 7 college credits).
