Find your classification below for advising details, PRF details, and dates.
Appointment Scheduling Information:
Honors advising appointments are conducted at McClellan Hall, with the strong recommendation of wearing masks. To schedule an appointment with an Honors advisor, please email them at honors.advising@ttu.edu
Honors new current/transfer students will receive contact for scheduling an advising appointment with an advisor. An Honors advising hold will be placed until the student schedules an appointment. Students who are not making steady progress towards Honors course requirements will be required to schedule an advising appointment, with an Honors advising hold placed until the appointment is scheduled. Similarly, first-year Honors students at TTU who miss their LCG advising presentation will be contacted and required to schedule an advising appointment, with an Honors advising hold placed until the appointment is scheduled. Students pursuing 2+2 pre-health prerequisites, intending to complete Honors requirements on an accelerated path before application to professional schools, will also be contacted and required to schedule an advising appointment, with an Honors advising hold placed until the appointment is scheduled. Graduating Honors students for May or August are encouraged to schedule an advising appointment. No Honors advising hold will be placed. All Honors students are welcome to make an appointment to discuss Honors-related advising questions. For any questions related to Spring and/or Summer course selection or other immediate issues, you may contact us via email at honors.advising@ttu.edu or reach out to a specific Honors advisor.
Permit Requests and Registration Information:
All university classes should be loaded on Raiderlink. Specific Honors sections offered during each semester can be found on the Honors Course Information webpage, course booklets. Please note that course booklets are subject to revisions
as sections are added, cancelled, or otherwise modified.
As with previous advising cycles, Honors permits are only needed for selected, high-demand
Honors sections and not for all Honors sections offered. Please consult the relevant course offering booklets to see if a permit is required for enrollment.
The online Permit Request Form (PRF) will be posted soon on the Honors Advising webpage
associated with your classification by hours. You may NOT submit an online PRF before
the designated date and time outlined for your classification. If your form is submitted
before the appropriate PRF start time, it will be deleted, and your permit request(s)
will not be processed.
Visual Schedule Builder may not always accurately pull in Honors course sections.
It is recommended to use the Plan Ahead Tool in the Add/Drop classes portal or the
Section Search Tool to manually build your schedule.
Your online Permit Request Form must include a full tentative semester schedule, including your intended Honors and non-Honors courses, for processing. Once you submit an online PRF successfully, you will receive a copy of your completed form via email. If you do not receive this auto-response, please contact Kelsey Kimzey to ensure your PRF was received by our staff.
Degree requirements can be found in the TTU Undergraduate Catalog or your DegreeWorks
portal.
Permits will be required for enrollment in Honors Summit Experience sections and will be issued first to May and August Honors graduates ONLY. After these graduates have been accommodated, remaining Summit permits will be given with preference to other students graduating within the year.
Do not contact advisors about permit requests before the specified date and time for notifications about permit issuance. If you receive a permit for a high-demand Honors section and do not plan on registering for that course, please inform an Honors advisor so the space may be given to another student.
Check your current holds and verify your permits under the "My Enrollment" tab of your Student Dashboard before your registration date.
Waitlists:
The Honors College manages waitlists for high-demand Honors sections that require a permit to enroll. If spaces open up in full courses, students on the waitlist will be contacted in the order they are listed. It's essential to check your TTU email daily for notifications. Waitlists are managed until the 4th class day of each semester, following Raiderlink waitlist policies.
Please refrain from contacting instructors for overrides, as they do not monitor enrollments or waitlists for Honors sections. Additionally, for high-demand Honors sections, students will not be skipped over on a waitlist for others, even with professor approval.
For Honors sections not noted as high-demand, Raiderlink manages waitlists. Once a section fills, students can add their names to the waitlist through the Course Registration function. If your name moves to the top of the waitlist, Raiderlink will trigger an email notification.
It is advisable to register for alternate classes immediately when placed on an in-house or Raiderlink waitlist. Ensure that you have an alternate, non-Honors section of the same course or another acceptable course for degree sequencing.
PRF and Registration Timeline by Classification/Earned Hours:
Students are encouraged to register for alternate courses as soon as possible, in
case their names do not come up on waitlists.
