Semi-Annual Meetings

You are required to attend one meeting per semester. These mandatory meetings are intended to provide peer support and socialization and direct you toward the completion of the major project. Breakout sessions for each cohort provide appropriate educational topics such as qualitative research, IRB process, and proposal preparation.

To remain in the Honors Program, you must maintain a cumulative GPA of 3.50 or higher each academic year. If at the end of spring semester your GPA has fallen below 3.50, you will be withdrawn from the Program. You may reapply when your GPA is again 3.50 or higher.
