FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Attend a Thesis Workshop or come to an individual meeting.
To schedule an individual meeting, email Laura.Clippard@mtsu.edu. She has set aside some dates for individual meetings to discuss students’ timelines and thesis questions.
JUNIORS-
If you are enrolled in UH 4900 or UH 4950, you WILL receive Honors early registration.
If you are enrolled in the lecture series or interdisciplinary seminar, then we automatically review you and send you an email if you are eligible.
