The aim of the Honors experience is to encourage openness of thought, breadth of education, and a desire for life-long learning. We offer our students numerous curricular and extracurricular activities to further these goals. In order to take advantage of Honors opportunities, you will be required to:
- Enroll and participate in a First-Year Experience course and its accompanying Learning Community Group during your first fall semester in Honors;
- Progress steadily in your Honors coursework, accruing at least 24 Honors credit hours by graduation;
- Earn a B- or better in all Honors courses;
- Maintain a 3.5 cumulative TTU GPA;
- Read and understand all Honors materials provided to you during your association with the Honors College, including the Honors Student Handbook, which can be accessed at www.honors.ttu.edu.
At present, you are being admitted to the Honors College with a “provisional standing.” You will
achieve full standing as a member of the College at the end of your first semester in the Honors
College pending a TTU grade point average of 3.5 or higher.
If you understand and accept the above-mentioned Honors objectives and requirements, please confirm your membership in our incoming class by checking “Accept” below.

If you are not absolutely certain of your intention to attend Texas Tech University and enroll in the Honors College, please check “Defer my Decision” rather than “Accept.” You will not jeopardize your offer of admission should you choose to defer your decision. The deadline to notify the College of your final decision is May 1st; however, please communicate with us before then should your plans become final prior to this deadline.
If you do not wish to accept our offer of membership, please confirm your denial by checking “Decline” below. If you would like to share your reasons for declining the invitation, we would appreciate the information.
