A FEW WORDS ABOUT THE CLARK HONORS COLLEGE ADVISING GUIDE

The points on this sheet include everything CHC students must do to meet minimum credit-hour and distribution requirements for the Bachelor of Arts or Bachelor of Science degrees. Other requirements may apply to students attending professional schools at the University of Oregon.

University writing and group requirements are satisfied with honors college curriculum. Students who withdraw from Clark Honors College may be required to take additional classes to satisfy university requirements in order to graduate.

The second-language requirement will be waived if a department requires more than 90 credits of course work for a major leading to a B.S. degree. Such majors include biology, business administration, chemistry, computer and information sciences, exercise and movement science, general science, geological sciences, and physics. The second-language requirement is also waived for students pursuing bachelor of architecture (B.Arch) and bachelor of fine arts degrees (B.F.A.), interior architecture (B.I. Arch.), and landscape architecture (B.L.A.). In music, where there are several choices of degrees, the second-language requirement is waived only in cases where it is not a requirement for the student's chosen degree.

CHC students should plan to fulfill the math and science requirements in their first or second year of college.

Note that all courses taken to satisfy Clark Honors College requirements must be graded (unless P/NP is the only option); students must achieve grades of C- or higher for the course to count toward requirements.

CHC students must fulfill their upper division Clark Honors College requirements with CHC classes (classes with a subject code of "HC"). Permission to take non-HC classes to fulfill these requirements must be obtained in advance, in writing, with the faculty signature on the advising guide sheet in the student's CHC file.

HC 412 or 415 (multicultural courses) may be used as substitutes for HC 421 or HC 431, depending on course content. Substitution approvals must be obtained in advance, in writing, with the faculty signature on the advising guide sheet in the student's CHC file.
