Technically speaking, there are no after-class/evening commitments for students in University Honors. There are lots of optional activities offered, but beyond the required 18 credits, application to the program, and program graduation application, the only other program graduation requirement is a 3.3 GPA. Unlike the honors programs at many other schools, Honors at UA is not meant to be a lock step program. Instead, it’s a facilitating organization for top students with a very broad and relatively easy to satisfy set of requirements which often don’t require students to take any extra credits than they would otherwise take.
