In their senior year, students who have maintained a 3.5 or higher GPA in the major may complete an honors thesis, a thirty-page academic or creative thesis under the supervision of a faculty director. The English honors thesis offers preparation for the kind of extensive writing expected in graduate school.

For more information, including eligibility, timelines, specific requirements, and forms, juniors should contact Dr. Timothy Welsh, Chair of English.
