Track Experience
Prior to graduation, Honors students are required to complete a track experience, which can be fulfilled in one of three ways: study abroad, research, or civic engagement. See Module 2.9 & 2.10 in the Honors Student Handbook for details.

Steps for satisfying the Honors Track requirement:
- Once you know the experience you'd like to count for your Track Experience, obtain approval by completing the Honors Track Proposal form. There are separate forms for Study Away, Research, or Civic Engagement. You can find the forms in Modules 4.4 of the Student Handbook. REMEMBER! You must receive approval BEFORE you begin the experience. Retroactive approval for an experience will not be given.
- Once the experience is completed, enroll in HNRS 361. Enroll in any quarter after you complete the experience. If the experience is ongoing then enroll after you have participated in the experience long enough to be able to reflect on the experience.
- Enrollment in HNRS 361 is by permission only. When you are ready to enroll in HNRS 361 email honors@calpoly.edu to request the permission number. You will only receive a permission number IF you have received prior approval for your Track Experience. HNRS 361 is administered entirely online using an asynchronous instructional format.
