Admission Application

This form is for a student’s initial application into The Honors College. 

 

Honors Project Forms

These forms all relate to a student’s honors project. An FAQ about the honors project can be found here.

 

Determination of Research (DOR)

If you do not believe your honors project has human or animal subjects, this form is to be submitted before your honors project proposal. You must have the approval email from the Office of Sponsored Programs and Research Integrity and attach that email to your honor project proposal.

Human or Animal Subjects

In the event you do have human and animal subjects, a copy of the IRB/IACUC protocol letter from the Office of Sponsored Programs and Research Integrity must be attached. Please work with your faculty mentor or Dr. Goldstein to determine which application should be submitted.

Honors Project Proposal

This form is submitted in order to have your honors project approved. It should be received by the Friday of the first week of classes for the semester you would like to register. 

Supplemental Budget Request

This form is for Honors College students who already have an approved honors project on file, but want access to additional funds (up to $1,000 per project).

Honors Project Submission

Honors College students can fill out this form once they have completed their project and their faculty mentor has approved it.

 

Professional Development Grant

Professional Development Grants are available to any Honors College student in good academic standing, who has university-approved expenses related to an internship, research, or study abroad experience. Examples of covered expenses include, but are not limited to, mileage to/from an internship, travel to a conference or study abroad (can be domestic, but must be “for credit” and UCM sponsored), fees related to a workshop, or STEAM-related supplies for a capstone project. Students can utilize the Professional Development Grant for expenses related to their honors project that are not covered by the Honors Project Research Fund. This grant request cannot exceed $1000 and can only be used one time. Students who withdraw from The Honors College and use these funds, as well as those who are removed for failing to remain in good academic standing, will have them billed back to their student account. Students can either book their own travel/order their own supplies or have their academic department do so and The Honors College will reimburse them. The form can be found here.

 

Substitution Form

This form is for students who wish to request an Honors College requirement substitution for: (1) a general education fine arts course from Knowledge Area I in lieu of 3 foreign language credits,  (2) a UCM-sponsored study abroad course in lieu of 3 foreign language credits (students still need to take one Literature, one Fine Arts, and one additional Literature, Fine Arts or Humanities course), (3) or 3 additional credits of HONR 3000 in lieu of an Honors College-only general education section. Students who wish to complete a 6-credit hour honors project in lieu of an Honors College-only general education section must submit a letter detailing their plan of action to Dr. Jennifer Carson for approval by the Honors College Advisory Board.

 

Withdrawal

For students who wish to withdraw from The Honors College,  please email Dr. Jennifer Carson to submit your request.
