Online and summer school courses are <strong>not<\/strong> eligible for h-options&#8221; (<em>Honors College Policy Handbook<\/em>).<\/li>\n<li>The proposal must make clear how the work done for the honors option is <strong>distinct<\/strong> from what students are already doing in the course. What makes this work worthy of earning honors credit in addition to the grade that a student will receive on the non-honors course?<\/li>\n<li>A <strong>service element<\/strong> <em>must be part of the assessed work under contract in the semester the honors option is completed<\/em>.<\/li>\n<li>Students will receive notification regarding approval or revision of their contract proposal <strong>no later than the third Friday<\/strong> of the semester.
