Re-applying

If you were an Honors student who was discontinued and you would like to re‐apply to University Honors, it is possible, depending on when you were discontinued. If the year and quarter you were discontinued are not included in the chart appearing below, it means you do not have the opportunity to re‐apply. If you are eligible, please visit the "Admissions" web page for further instructions. Once you are readmitted to Honors, you will be subject to the requirements for the cohort to which you were newly admitted and will not be required to satisfy any requirements you have missed while you were not in Honors.
