There are two tracks to Honors Graduation:
Honors Certificate: Students who satisfy the following requirements will be eligible for the Honors Certificate:
- Complete 12 credit hours honors work (any combination of honors classes or honors project contracts);
- Maintain a minimum cumulative GPA of 3.5;
- Earn at least a B in each honors class or honorized class.
Honors Diploma: Students who satisfy the following requirements will be eligible for the Honors Diploma:
- Complete 21 total credit hours of honors work, of which
- 3 credit hours must be IDH2105, “Knowledge Through the Ages”;
- No more that 6 credit hours can be in honors projects;
- Earn at least a B in each honors class or honorized class;
- Earn at least 40 points on the Honors Point System.
Purpose /scope of tracks: The Honors Certificate provides flexibility for students who want the honors experience but who may not be able to complete the requirements of the Honors Diploma. The Honors Diploma is intended for students who want a more intense honors experience and is especially recommended for students who plan to transfer to an upper-division Honors College or Honors Program. Graduates of either track are eligible for honors-specific transfer scholarships (e.g., FAU Community College Honors Scholarship).
