Potentially eligible students should meet with their adviser to plan for the
History Honors Major. History majors who have achieved an overall College grade
point average of 3.0 and one of 3.5 in History (based on a minimum of five
graded History courses) may apply for admission to the Honors Program through a
written proposal submitted in the spring term of their junior year. Others
interested in the program should petition the Department for admission by
August 15th of the summer term preceding their senior year.
The Honors Program consists of the successful completion of the following
requirements:
- 1. The minimum number of courses required for the Standard Major as
specified in (1), (2), (3), (4) and (5).
- 2. In addition to completing the requirements of the Standard Major, honors
majors must complete the Honors Seminar (History 98) in the fall term of their
senior year and a thesis (History 99), normally written in the winter and
spring terms. History 98 counts as one course credit toward the degree
requirement but receives no credit within the major. History 99 may
carry up to two credits toward the degree requirement but counts as only
one credit toward the Honors Major requirement.
- Special Provisions, described under the Standard Major, also apply
to the History Honors Program.
