	Once a student has been admitted to the College of Human Sciences Honors Program, he/she needs to submit a Program of Study to the College Honors Program Committee. If you are admitted during the FALL semester, your POS is due by November 1 of that semester. If you are admitted during the SPRING semester, your POS is due by April 1 of that semester. If you are admitted AFTER the due date during any semester, your POS is due the following semester by the deadlines given above. Students are to attach a current degree audit or four-year plan to the cover sheet. On the degree audit or four-year plan, you need to indicate (highlight, underline, or star) the following: Honors courses: One OUTSIDE your major and one WITHIN your major. Indicate the semester you have taken or plan to take these courses (include course designator and number). Seminars: One for each year in the College Honors Program (a minimum of two). Indicate the semester you have taken or plan to take EACH seminar. Honors Project: The Honors Project is an independent study; therefore the course number is 490H. Indicate the semester you plan to take the credits for your project, the number of credits, and the departmental designator (e.g. HD FS, C I, HRI, Ex Sp, FS HN, etc.). Once you have indicated the above on your current degree audit or four-year plan, you need to do the following: Complete the POS Cover Sheet and sign it Have your ACADEMIC ADVISOR sign the cover sheet Have your DEPARTMENT HONORS REPRESENTATIVE sign the cover sheet Submit the completed packet to the Chair of the College Honors Committee, who will, after signing the cover sheet, make copies and send it to the necessary people. You WILL receive a signed copy of the POS for your records. If you make changes to your POS, you do NOT need to inform the College Honors Committee, unless those changes are considered major. Major changes would include the following: A change in major or minor A change in course designator and/or credit hours for the Honors Project If you are unsure, contact your Department Honors Representative for help.
