After their first semester at Marshall, honors advising is an opportunity for students to meet with advisors in the College each semester to discuss, primarily, current options for fulfilling the requirement that students complete upper-division seminars and/or experiential and collaborative courses as part of the Honors Curriculum. Second-year students, while completing HON 200, would normally receive their first invitation to set-up an Honors Advising appointment as this course is treated as a sort of “gateway” to the upper-division courses. Each semester there are several interdisciplinary seminars offered through the College by outstanding faculty from across the University. Enrollment is by permission only and must be arranged in an honors advising appointment. These appointments also allow the College to continue to check-in with students along the way and for them to ask honors-related questions. Honors advising begins after the coming semester schedule is released and goes “live” for students. The appointment scheduling links will open in advance of Priority Registration so that you can meet with an honors advisor and complete your schedule for honors before this registration begins. Sessions are booked by students according to a rolling invitation (based on total student credit hours earned as seen below) and are 15 minute appointments. Details on the dates for when email invitations will be sent are seen below.
