The Critical Gender Studies Honors Program allows advanced CGS majors to pursue individual projects in the context of collective intellectual exchange with their peers and advising faculty. Students are eligible if they a) have senior standing at the time they begin the program, and b) are approved by the faculty director and steering committee. Normally, students eligible for honors will have a 3.5 grade point average in upper-division courses taken for the major, but highly motivated students who do not meet this criterion may be admitted to the program at the discretion of the director and the steering committee.

Many Critical Gender Studies majors and minors elect to do research under the rubrics of Directed Group Study (198), Independent Study (199), internships, and mentor programs. Because these courses can be taken only with a P/NP grade option, the number of such courses to be applied to the major should be discussed with a Critical Gender Studies advisor. Some graduate and professional schools prefer to evaluate a student's transcript with letter grades. College guidelines and requirements for grade options also vary. Please see college academic advisors and Critical Gender Studies advisors.
