English Major: Honors Program Requirements- Fall 2005 and later

Students wishing to earn honors in the major field should consult the advisor regarding the application procedure and requirements. The honors curriculum consists of a minimum of 31 credits and also includes a requirement that at least one course, in addition to the designated honors courses, must be taken for honors credit. It is recommended that students begin the curriculum in the first semester of their sophmore year, if possible.

Students must take one course in the 4 credit format (selected from 215,216, or 217). The fourth credit is a writing-intensive workshop focusing on drafts and the revision of papers required by the course.
