General Requirements for New and Sustaining Members
Students will be admitted into David C. Frederick Honors College at Pitt-Greensburg according to the previous requirements for the Honors Program: a 3.5 GPA for existing Pitt-Greensburg students, and typically a 3.8 GPA for incoming high school students (though this is weighed against other considerations).
To complete the David C. Frederick Honors College Distinction at Pitt-Greensburg, students must have a 3.00 cumulative GPA at graduation. To complete the David C. Frederick Honors College Degree at Pitt-Greensburg, students must have a 3.25 cumulative GPA at graduation. Students whose GPA falls below the minimum requirements at graduation will not complete the Honors program.
Honors Program Students
Since many of Greensburg campus students are already working toward an Honors Program recognition developed prior to this proposal, existing students can choose to remain within the original Honors Program and its requirements and benefits. They also have the option of transferring into one of the Honors College programs, if that is a manageable option. If you are a current Honors Program student and wish to transfer to one of the David C. Frederick Honors College at Pitt-Greensburg programs, contact one of the Honors Program mentors to discuss this option.
Any student admitted to Pitt-Greensburg beginning the fall 2023 semester or later, however, is required to participate in one of the Honors College Programs.
