Honors Scholars majoring in biology or molecular biology are expected to attend and participate in BIO 601 while they write their Honors proposal and participate in BIO 602 while they complete their research.

A student who completes three biology courses (BIO prefix) and earns a grade lower than C- in each course prior to registering for BIO 601 will be identified as not making progress in the major.

Students who are not making progress in the major will not be allowed to continue as a biology or molecular biology major.

Students cannot register for BIO 601 (Biology Capstone I) unless their major GPA is above a 2.0 and they are making progress in the major.
