If you are advising students for the spring 2024 semester, please note that all honors students who were admitted to IU South Bend in fall 2023 are exempt from having to take a First Year Seminar (FYS) course. This exemption has been granted based on the fact that all honors students must take an Honors Freshman Seminar (HON-H100) during their first year on campus and HON-H100 covers many of the same elements as traditional FYS courses.
Please note, however, that honors students may take an FYS course to fulfill a different general education requirement if they choose to do so.
If you have any questions, please contact Neovi Karakatsanis at nkarakat@iusb.edu or 574-520-4861.
