To be admitted to Quinsigamond Community College’s Commonwealth Honors Program, a student must meet at least one of the following criteria:

• Current QCC Students: 3.5 cumulative GPA (progress or final grades) with at least 12 college level credits.

• New QCC Students: CPT Placement Test: a placement of 11 or 12 on the writing exam, placement into ENG 101, and a recommended placement of MAT 099.

• Transfer Students: in good standing from another Commonwealth Honors Program.

• A student who does not meet one of the above automatic admissions criteria may apply to the Honors Coordinator, providing other evidence of academic success including recommendations from high school or college faculty.

All potential Honors Program students must meet with the Honors Program Coordinator.

 

To remain in good standing, and for QCC’s Honors Program to be recognized as a Commonwealth Honors Program, all students, once accepted into the Honors Program, must maintain a cumulative grade point average of no less than 3.3.
