General Honors Certificates and Honors Degrees
General Honors Certificate
Students who complete 20 or more honors credit hours and have a 3.3 MU GPA
may graduate with general honors. Many departments also allow students to complete
an honors degree in their major. An Honors Certificate and an Honors Degree
will be noted on your transcript.
Students must complete the 20 hours of honors courses before their final
semester to receive the General Honors Certificate and to be eligible for the
Honors Convocation. The General Honors Certificate is noted on a student's final
transcript. Up to six hours of departmental honors courses, six hours of transfer
honors courses, and six hours of Learning by Contract courses may be used toward
the 20 hours. In order to receive honors credit for an honors designated course,
you must earn a "C" or better.
Upon completion of the 20 hours of honors course work, students must apply
for their honors certificate. Specific dates and deadlines to apply will be
announced each semester. Graduating students must apply for their honors certificate
by mid-semester to graduate with general honors and to have the notation on
their transcript. Graduating students that do not apply for their honors certificates
will not graduate with general honors.
To apply for your General Honors Cetificate please complete the Application
for Graduation with General Honors Certificate.
