Admission After Freshman Year

Current U of M-Twin Cities and transfer students are accepted into the University Honors Program every fall semester on a space-available basis.

Eligibility Requirements

In order for your application to be considered, you must have:

  • a minimum cumulative grade point average of 3.5
  • a history of strong performance in major and prerequisite coursework
  • a planned graduation date of spring 2018 or later (for students admitted fall 2016)*

*Students planning to graduate before spring 2018 should call to schedule an appointment with the Associate Director to discuss whether or not graduation with Latin Honors is a viable option. Please note: a minimum of 60 UMTC residency credits are required to graduate with Latin Honors.

Please note that admission is highly competitive. The mean GPA for students admitted to the program is typically 3.85. Admitted students have also demonstrated a strong interest in research, scholarship, or artistic activity.

Admissions Information

Fall 2016 admission is closed. The application for Fall 2017 admission will be posted here in early October 2016. As the fall semester progresses, we will schedule information sessions for students interested in learning more about post-freshman admission to the University Honors Program.
