Honors Engaged Approval Application

Honors Engaged is designed to give you opportunities to participate in co-curricular experiences at NIU as part of the University Honors Program. Completing the co-curricular experiences addressed in this form will enable you to earn points toward Full or Associate University Honors. If you are interested in transcript notation for your co-curricular experiences through EngagePLUS, please visit the EngagePLUS website.

Honors staff will review your application and send an email to your NIU email account regarding your status. This will typically take one week. If you would like to work with an Honors advisor to develop a co-curricular experience, please make an appointment.
