Requirements for Transfer Applicants
Transfer applicants who have earned 50 college credits or more can apply to the Honors Program.
Applicants are required to have a GPA of 3.5 or higher at the time of application. Transfer students should review the Honors curriculum, (below) and ensure they have room for the required Honors courses outlined therein before applying. Such transfer students then need to arrange for a faculty-authored letter of support to be sent to unohonors@unomaha.edu. The letter should describe the student's academic achievement and potential and should discuss the student's likelihood for success in and aptitude within our Honors community here at UNO. Students transferring from another institution's Honors Program should email the Director directly to discuss transferring Honors credits into our UNO Program.
Honors courses may carry general education or major requirements credit; all Honors courses completed successfully carry credit toward degree completion.
