The faculty and deans from our departments are also diligently considering new courses that can be offered for our students.

Much more information is forthcoming.

The Bay Honors Research Symposium gives students the opportunity to participate in scholarly research in a variety of disciplines, with the goal of presenting their findings in a variety of formats. The Honors Institute will pay Reg Fees.


Honors Student Counseling Report Form

All Honors Institute participants are required to meet with a counselor at least once every quarter to review or develop their educational plan, as well as to discuss any personal, career or academic concerns. Counseling appointments are scheduled for 30 minutes.

After your counseling appointment, please complete the new Counseling Report Form to record your visit and help evaluate your plan towards academic, personal, and professional successes. The Honors Institute will verify your appointment at the end of each quarter. This new reporting process replaces the documentation that counselors needed to complete.

Contact Your Honors Counselor Today!
If you have any questions regarding your schedule, the transfer application process, or any other questions about being an honors student, please be sure to visit any one of the General Counselors. For Honors specific questions, do contact any one of our Honors Counselors:
