The honors program offers students an enhanced educational experience along with potential transfer and scholarship benefits. Many universities and colleges recognize the academic achievement presented by honors courses with preferential transfer tracks, supplemental points in transfer evaluation, and scholarships for honors students. Successful completion of the enriched curriculum featured in honors coursework can also assist when transferring into programs heavily in demand.
When students take an honors course, an honors designation appears on their transcripts. One such designation can give students a sharper edge when applying for admission and scholarship. Additional honors designations make students even more desirable to institutions of higher learning.
There are two ways to do honors at CCSF, (1) taking an honors designated course and (2) completing an honors contract with a professor in a non-honors course. Because CCSF does not offer many honors courses, most students complete honors contracts.
