HONORS SEMINARS (AS H110)

Students with a 3.30 GPA and/or advisor approval who are looking for the challenge of individual research, mentorship and graduate-type seminar experience may enroll in an American Studies honors seminar. Special seminars and research opportunities will be available every semester. Interested students should speak with a faculty advisor for more information. Please note that taking these honors seminars is separate from graduating with honors in the major.

H195, students must have senior standing, an overall grade-point average of 3.51, and a grade-point average of 3.65 for all (upper and lower division) courses taken in completion of the major.
