Honors Advising

Here to Help

• Honors Distinction Progress Check

  If Honors students want to discuss their Honors progress or future honors courses to take, they should schedule a meeting with their assigned Honors Advisor or email the Honors Advisors at honorsadvisors@clemson.edu.

  A transcript check request is for any of the following:

  • General Honors
  • Interdisciplinary Honors
  • Departmental Honors

  Note: Please note that a transcript check does not take the place of approving your eligibility to graduate with an Honors College distinction. If you are graduating, go ahead and submit the Honors Graduation Form.

• Honors College Distinction Update Form

  The Honors College Distinction Update Form is used to make changes to your Honors College Distinction(s).

  Prior to submission, students should discuss distinction change requests with their Honors College Advisor and refer to their Honors College Handbook for details, including specific requirements, of each Honors College Distinction.

  • Students requesting to add the Departmental Honors Distinction alongside General Honors or switch their distinction from General Honors to Departmental Honors only, should discuss this request with the Honors College Departmental Honors faculty contact prior to submission of this form.

  • Students requesting to add the Interdisciplinary Honors Distinction alongside General Honors or switch their distinction from General Honors to Interdisciplinary Honors only, must have a pre-approved Interdisciplinary Honors Proposal Form provided by your Honors Advisor.

  Upon submission of this form, your Honors Advisor will review and approve your request. You will receive an email notification upon final approval by the Honors College.

• Honors Course Exemption Form

  Deadline: The last day to add a class for each semester.

  Honors students are required to enroll in at least one Honors course each Fall and Spring semester. Students participating in a study abroad semester, off-campus internship, co-op, student teaching, or another off-campus experience may submit the Honors Course Exemption form to request exemption from taking an Honors course.

  Students may also submit the Honors Course Exemption Form to request a one-time Honors course exemption during a semester in which they are taking on-campus coursework.

  Note that students approved for an Honors course exemption must still meet the minimum requirements of their Honors Distinction and are not exempt from any distinction requirements.

  Approval of Honors course exemptions are at the discretion of the Honors College.

• Honors College Withdrawal Form

  Deadline: The last day to add a class for each semester.

  Students who wish to withdraw from the Clemson Honors College must submit the Honors College Withdrawal form by the last day to add a class of any given semester. Failure to submit this form on time will result in the Honors fee not being refunded for the respective semester.

• Departmental Honors Substitution Form

  Departmental Honors students requesting a substitution to their Departmental Honors requirements must submit the Departmental Honors Substitution Form.
