2. Students who have not been to The Honors College for advising during the current semester, or during the semester preceding the one for which the Contract is intended, should call 621-6901 to make an advising appointment before submitting the “Request for Honors Contract.” In addition, any student with a question about creating an Honors Contract may call for an advising appointment.


3. Students must fill out the online “Request for Honors Contract” form. All fields are required.


4. Before completing the “Request” form, students will need to meet with the course instructor. To prepare for this meeting, attend at least the first day of class and read the syllabus for the course. Be prepared to discuss possible assignments, projects or readings with the instructor that follow the “Guidelines,” below. Once you and your instructor have decided upon the terms of the Contract, you may fill out the online form, print it out, and bring it to the instructor for signature before turning it in to The Honors College with a syllabus.


5. Note: The Honors course designation will appear on the student’s record at the end of the semester, after the Contract is complete.
