Honors Program | University of Colorado Boulder

Fall 2012 Honors Courses

Continuing Honors Program students:

All continuing undergraduate students in all CU-Boulder schools and colleges with a cumulative CU-Boulder GPA of 3.3 or higher are eligible to take one honors course per semester. The registration system will allow you to enroll if you meet that criterion; you do not need special permission to register. If you are a continuing student and have problems registering for a course, visit the Honors Program Office in Norlin M400M for assistance.

The enrollment limit of the upper division courses is fifteen. In the fall, lower division courses are limited to three continuing students as we reserve the other spaces for incoming first-year students.

If you do not meet the GPA requirement, you may be administratively dropped.

Honors courses may not be taken pass/fail. Auditors are not allowed in honors courses due to pedagogical concerns.
