Appeal 5xxx-Level Course to Count as an Honors Course

Students may receive honors credit for completing courses at the graduate level, above and beyond the normal undergraduate curriculum. For 6xxx, 7xxx, and 8xxx-level courses, that process is automatic, and this form does not need to be submitted. All other courses (including 5xxx-level) must submit an explanation of their graduate level coursework as an Honors add-on. This may take the form of enrollment in a 5xxx level course that is traditionally reserved for graduate students (<20% undergraduate enrollment) or the student opting to follow graduate-level syllabus expectations in a mixed or cross-listed course. In all instances, the student's participation should indicate coursework beyond what is normally expected of undergraduates in their major.
