Honors Welcome Back
The Honors Welcome Back is a new event designed to welcome all of our Honors students back to campus! This is a fun, casual event where you will have the opportunity to meet other new and current Honors students from your major and college. New students will receive their first Honors College t-shirts and learn about the various opportunities to get involved in Honors.
Planning is underway and more information will be added over the summer.
Honors Designated Courses
The Honors College offers a limited number of Honors-designated courses each fall and spring semester. Although Honors students are not required to take Honors-designated courses, we encourage them to do so. Students enjoy the Honors-designated courses because they are smaller and provide a stronger foundation in the subject matter. If you would like to add an Honors-designated course to your schedule, you should let your academic advisor know when you meet with him/her during New Maverick Orientation (NMO).
If you were admitted to the Honors College after you attended NMO, you may be able to add Honors-designated courses in MyMav. If not, you will need to contact your academic advisor (not your Honors College advisor).
If you do not need/wish to take any of the Honors-designated courses offered this fall, that is okay! You will instead contract one or more of your regular classes. We will discuss contracting in greater detail at Honors 101.
Honors Initial Advising
All newly admitted Honors students will meet with an Honors advisor during their first semester as an Honors student here at UT Arlington. Honors advising is supplemental to academic advising; if you have questions pertaining to which courses you will take in the fall, you should contact your regular academic advisor. You will receive additional details about Honors Initial Advising later in the summer.
