The Psychology Honors Program (PHP) is designed to provide honors-level work in the psychology major. The University Honors Program (UNHP) has an interdisciplinary emphasis, but includes work in psychology. Because each program has its own emphasis, students who qualify are encouraged to take advantage of both programs. For more information on the PHP, click on the links below.
Who Qualifies to Participate
Students qualify to apply for the Psychology Honors Program (PHP) if they fall in one of the following three groups: 1) Any student with a cumulative GPA of 3.25 or higher may apply. 2) Students who do not yet have a cumulative GPA (e.g. in their first semester) may apply if they are already part of the University Honors Program. 3) Individual students who do not have the required GPA to complete honors work may still be considered for the Psychology Honors Program with support from a faculty member in the department. In the latter case the faculty member writes a letter of support for the student.
