How does the Honors College work?

Yes you do a regular major and just add in some UH classes, and some departmental honors classes, along the way.
My S just finished his first semester (CS major). He took the honors version of Calc 2, and two UH seminars (among other classes). One seminar was literally an introduction to all the opportunities and resources of the Honors College.

There’s no penalty to “quitting” the Honors College later, other than losing its perks. So there’s no downside to starting out in the HC.
