Current & Transfer Students

Admission for Current and Transfer Students

Current first-year students and transfer students may apply to the Hutton Honors College at the end of the academic year.

Applicants must have completed either 14 (one semester) or 26 (two semesters) graded academic credit hours with a GPA of 3.8 or higher. Please note: courses taken Pass/Fail, non-academic courses, and courses taken elsewhere (including transferred credit) do not count toward the credit hours with a 3.8 GPA. Students with three or more semesters at IUB are not eligible to apply.

Applicants must commit to completing the Hutton Honors Notation, which requires two gateway courses, an external minor (or four seminars offered by the Hutton Honors College), and a thesis. Applicants who do not indicate how they intend to complete the Notation will not be considered. 

We are not currently accepting applications. Students who applied at the end of the 2023-2024 academic year have been notified of the status. We will be accepting applications again in May 2025. Questions may be addressed to Dr. Laura Felicetti, Director of Admissions lfelicet@iu.edu.
