Program Requirements

Students may enter the honors program directly out of high school, or as an already-established college student. You may qualify for the program in one of several ways:

  • If you have a 3.5 high school GPA (on a 4.0 scale) or...
  • If you have graduated from the top 20% of your high school class or...
  • If you have a 3.5 college GPA after 12 credits (in transfer courses only) or...
  • If you get a recommendation from someone familiar with your academic abilities

All students must complete the application for the honors program, and must meet NCC placement requirements for English I.
