Coursework Requirements

To graduate with University Honors a student must earn 21 honor “points”.

A minimum of 9 honor points must be earned through Designated Honor Sections (for example 120.08H), H-Options, or through Honor Classes (for example HONORS 296).

The remaining 12 points can be completed through Designated Honor Sections, H-Options, through Honor Classes, or Exchange Honors Points.

Note 1: in order to earn Honors Credits in a specific course (whether in a designated Honors course or by way of an H-Option contract), a student must earn at least a B (not a B-) in the course.

Note 2: each credit in a Honors Class, H-Option, etc. equals a point. For example, if you take 120.08H you earn 3 credits towards overall graduation, you also earn 3 honor points towards graduation from the University’s Honors Program.

Note 3: students must maintain a cumulative UWW GPA of 3.4 to remain in the Honors Program and to graduate with University Honors.
