My S is in Burnett. He’s taking symposium now. With that, he has 3 additional honors courses. Although, they prefer you only take two/semester to make sure everyone who wants one can get in … he had a schedule mishap with his First Years Exploration Counselor putting him in a wrong class so he was allowed to take a 3rd honors class so that he might be able to switch into the correct class without totally destroying his schedule. Next semester, he’ll only have 1 Honors to even things up to the 4 they want you take for your lower level classes. He’ll be taking honors composition because if you have to take comp, they require it be honors. After that he’ll have completed the lower level requirements and will move on to the upper level. Can’t remember them all at the moment, but if you look in the catalog under Burnett, they list them. He will also do those requirements with the counsel of his Economics advisor to make sure he’s fitting the upper level honors requirements into his major in the best way. I would definitely consider Burnett. BTW, if you are local or if you can get down here … go to one of the Friday afternoon meet and greets at Burnett. We found that invaluable. They really took the time to answer questions and address issues we had.
