If I want to attend a mini-mester or summer school session, will the Honors Program provide the money?
Response: Generally, the answer is, “No.” Honors Program awards cover costs associated with academic semesters and do not include any provisions for academic sessions. However, there are two exceptions to the rule. Firstly, students majoring in Medical Technology are REQUIRED to register for certain courses that are offered ONLY during the summer between their junior and senior years and the winter mini-mester of their senior year. These courses are a required part of their curriculum; and therefore, the Honors Program will fund these students based on the type of award that they have. Secondly, if there is money available to assist students during a summer session (no funds are ever available for the winter mini-mester), and we provide you with funding, we expect you to earn a grade of “A” or “B” in the course…..period. If you suspect that you are unable to earn either of those grades, you should decline the funding offer. If you fail to earn a grade of “A” or “B” in any course taken
