Department of English
Departmental Honors Program

In order to qualify for departmental honors, a student must have achieved a 3.5 or better GPA in the major, and have successfully completed the Honors Seminar (English 494) and an honors essay, which is normally written in relation to the Honors Seminar and under the supervision of the professor teaching that seminar.

For a limited number of outstanding students, the department offers a four-year BA/MA program in English. The program may be completed in 125-128 credits of College work. Requirements include the ability to read a foreign language, a comprehensive examination and a Master’s essay. Graduate work begins in the junior year. Interested students should consult the graduate advisor as early as the freshman year.
Qualified students in their junior and senior year who are not following the BA/MA option may also be admitted to graduate courses with the approval of the graduate advisor.
