There are a limited number of spaces in honors courses and enrollment preference will be given to students in the Honors Program. As an honors student, you are eligible for pre-enrollment. Pre-enrollment privileges enable you to enroll in your classes a few days before open enrollment begins to ensure that you get into your preferred class sections before they fill up.
