Honors List A and List B Course Contract Information
A List A Contract offers the opportunity for students to receive honors credit in a regular version of a course that is sometimes offered as an honors version ("H"Course/List A course).
Willingness to write a List A Contract with a student is at the discretion of the Faculty teaching the course, and approval of the Honors Director. It is preferred that the Faculty have previously taught the honors version of the course, or have written previous List A Contract with students (formerly titled "Honors Study Contracts"), and/or had significant experience teaching in the discipline/subject matter.
Courses available for a List A Contract are here under List A courses
It may be appropriate to write a List A contract for the following reasons:
When student's schedule/education plan does not allow for enrolling in the honors version
When the honors version course needed is not being offered due to regular course rotation
When the student needs the honors units toward the 15 unit requirement for Honors Scholar Designation, UCLA TAP and/or "Completion of the Honors Program".
