Frederick Honors College Referral

What is the purpose of this referral? 

A Frederick Honors College referral should be made when a student expresses a general or specific interest in Frederick Honors College opportunities (e.g., Honors courses, research programs, national scholarship competitions, the BPhil degree, applying to the Honors program), or when an advisor believes a student can benefit from engaging with the Frederick Honors College.

This referral should be used for students on the Pittsburgh Campus unless the student is transferring from a regional campus, and only if they are not currently in the Frederick Honors College. Students currently in the Honors Degree or Honors Distinction programs should be referred directly to their assigned advisor.

What action will be taken? 

For students not in the Honors Degree or Honors Distinction, the Frederick Honors College will respond to the student with an email directing them to the appropriate opportunities available to them on the Frederick Honors College website. If the student is in the Honors Degree or Honors Distinction, they will be referred to their Frederick Honors College advisor.

When will the referral be closed? 

The referral will be closed when the student has been provided with appropriate information to answer their questions or when the student has been referred to the appropriate Frederick Honors College staff member for support.
