Honors Program Requirements now on the Advisement Report

With Spring 2025 advanced registration just around the corner, we're excited to announce a new enhancement to the advisement report for our undergraduate Honors students!

Honors Program Requirement now on the Advisement Report
  • The section will appear between the UNIVERSITY COMPETENCY SUMMARY and UNIFI / LAC (General Education) sections of the advisement report for participating students.  See example report section below.
  • There are 3 options for honors completion, each with slightly different requirements.  A student will have one of these options.  Students who wish to change honors track must do so through the Honors Program.
  • Classes will be verified in this section, and will also appear elsewhere on the report.
     
  • Contracted Non-Honors Courses
    • At times, students have contracted to make non-honors classes count toward Honors requirements.
    • Past contract courses are in the process of being directed to honors requirements for current participants.   For the next week while this work is being done, you will see the following message on the advisement with no other informationTemporary Honor Program Message
    • When contract courses have been added, the full view of all honors requirements will be displayed.
  • What is expected of academic advisors?
     
    • You are NOT expected to advise students on the Honors requirements.
    • You may encourage students to take one Honors course a year or semester until the requirements are complete.  Honors Thesis is intended to be completed in the last year at UNI.
    • Refer students who have questions or concerns about their progress, the advisement report, contract courses or other details to the Honors Program advisors,  Jessica Moon and Kylie Knecht.
  • Additional Information
    • Honors courses can be identified in the Schedule of Classes by using the Course Attribute filter for Honors.
    • Find more information about the University Honors Program at https://hsp.uni.edu/.
