Honors Contract
While the Honors program prides itself on its seminars with small class sizes and focus on primary texts, Honors recognizes that taking five standalone Honors courses doesn’t work for every student and their educational plan. Furthermore, due to staff and facility limitations, not every subject is offered in the Honors format.
An Honors contract is a way for motivated students to work with participating professors to offer an otherwise non-Honors course, completing additional assignments (as stipulated by the contract) to count towards completion of the Honors program.
Regional Transfer Agreements
Honors students can choose to transfer to a number of schools including UC Irvine, UC Riverside and Cal State Fullerton. Plus, many of our honors students transfer into, and benefit from, the honors program of their new school.
