Apply To Honors As A Current Student

 

Current Freshman

Any WVU student in the first year of a four-year degree path who has earned less than 20 credit hours and has maintained a 3.7 cumulative GPA without an I or W on their transcript may submit an application to join the Honors Foundations Program immediately following their first semester at WVU through our second semester admission process. Students with an I or W on their transcript must request an appointment with Associate Dean Damien Clement via email at damien.clement@mail.wvu.edu.

How To Apply

Students who think they may qualify should apply near the end of their first full semester at WVU, or over the Winter Recess. Students must include a copy of their transcript (an unofficial copy is acceptable — go to your unofficial transcript page in STAR and print the page as a PDF to save the transcript).

Freshmen with a 3.7 cumulative GPA who have already earned 20-34 credits after their first semester at WVU who are interested in joining the Honors College must request an appointment with Associate Dean Damien Clement via email at damien.clement@mail.wvu.edu.

Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis. The deadline to apply for Spring 2025 is Jan. 8, 2025. Applications will not be considered after that date.
