HONORS ACADEMIC ADVISING AND ADVANCED REGISTRATION
As a member of the Honors College, students receive the special benefit of advanced registration privileges. This privilege of registering early before other students is contingent upon: (1) completing the Honors Academic Advising Form; (2) meeting with an Honors Advisor; and (3) earning10 hours of community service each semester. Honors students are encouraged to meet with an advisor as early as possible to help keep on track of their honors requirements.
Although personalized academic advising sessions are available to students throughout the academic year, the Honors College recommends attending an open advising session every semester to aid students in monitoring their academic progress and appropriately planning their semesters. Also, students may arrange meetings with advisors during the priority registration period, schedule individual appointments during the semester, or simply walk in for spontaneous appointments during designated advising times.
NEW STUDENT ADVISING
New students in the Honors College will receive a “Beginning in Honors New Student Packet” and Honors College official t-shirt at their first advising session. New students are required to schedule an advising appointment by calling the Honors College office at 294-1477 or emailing honors@shsu.edu.
