When it comes to registering for classes, there are three things to know:

1. Students are required to take Gateway to University Honors (HNRS1010) in fall semester of your first year.
   
   • Students should register for the course in the fall semester. If your schedule does not permit to include this class, please contact a University Honors academic advisor immediately following your orientation session to discuss your options.
     
   • Sections will only be offered in the fall semester.
     
   • Gateway to University Honors does NOT carry a fee. If students are taking the maximum number of credit hours (18) as a full-time student, students can still add the course without being charged additional tuition fees. Special permission by the student's primary college is needed to take 19 credit hours in this situation.
     
2. Students may begin to take honors seminars in the fall semester (View seminar offerings in the fall semester).  Most honors seminars can fulfill a general education requirement, and all honors seminars will fulfill an honors experience.
3. Please contact your University Honors academic advisor with questions about University Honors Program requirements during or after registration.
