Note: Honors Program deadlines are firm. Students submitting materials after these deadlines will be considered for graduation the following semester. Honors students may only extend graduation by one semester beyond completion of their major and other university requirements for the purpose of completing Honors requirements. Individual departments may have earlier thesis deadlines than our Program deadlines. Be sure to check with your faculty thesis advisor or Honors Coordinator.
