About the Honors Program

The Honors Program is a Community College of Rhode Island program in which students can enhance their educational experience while at CCRI by studying topics of their choosing in more depth. The Honors Program reflects the College's commitments to academic excellence.

Students participate in the Honors Program by completing Honors Projects within courses they are currently taking.  The title of the course on the transcript changes to “Honors in Course Title”, and a second 0.5 credit course is added to the students' schedule, reflecting the honors portion. Students that complete four Honors Projects at CCRI are designated Honors Program Graduates and receive special recognition.

As a rigorous and prestigious enterprise, the Honors Program contributes to the quality of academic life at the Community College of Rhode Island.

To learn more about participating in the Honors Program, please read the Introduction page.

If you have any questions, please contact the Honors Program Coordinators.

Eligibility Notification and Requirements

Students who are eligible for the Honors Program will receive an e-mail to their CCRI account this semester.  To be eligible you need to have completed 12 (previously it was 15) semester hours and have a 3.25 GPA or greater.  Students who do not meet these requirements, however, can apply to do an Honors project with the recommendation of a faculty member.  If you are interested in the Honors Program and have not previously participated, please come to one of the orientation sessions.  Also, browse this website for more information.  If you have any questions, please contact the Honors Program Coordinators.
