Through selected Honors courses, individualized projects and assignments, and special advising opportunities, students are encouraged to explore their academic interests and expand their intellectual horizons. Stand Out from the Crowd Honors scholars are recognized for what they are: engaged, driven and successful students. Both future employers – as well as four-year institutions – value the added rigor of an Honors program. Not only will your resume or application stand out, but your Honors status may make you eligible for STLCC scholarships and awards as well as lucrative transfer scholarships. Become an Honors Student Enrollment in the Honors program is open to returning students with a cumulative GPA of 3.5 on a 4.0 scale (with 12 credit hours in 100-level classes). Returning students may participate in the program on a limited, probationary basis in consultation with their campus Honors coordinator if they do not meet this eligibility requirement. New students may choose to submit ACT/ SAT scores, placement scores or high school transcripts to qualify for the program. Alternative evidence of eligibility may be considered as well. Choose from Flexible Options to Meet Your Needs Each STLCC campus offers a unique array of opportunities to earn Honors credit. Depending on the campus, you may choose: •Honors Courses: Honors sections of standard courses offer a more challenging curriculum with smaller class sizes, allowing you to learn alongside students with similar aspirations while enjoying significant interaction with instructors. Honors courses vary by campus and semester. •In-Course Honors Contracts: Honors students are encouraged to pursue independent projects beyond regular course requirements in standard classes, which might include additional speeches, presentations, fiction writing, multimedia work, or research, among many other possibilities. This option provides an opportunity for in-depth study of specific areas of interest. Honors contracts are developed and implemented with the approval of the course instructor. A Community for You From social activities to facilitated discussions, guest presentations, university transfer events, and an annual Honors symposium, Honors students enjoy extra opportunities for engagement and support.
