Course Registration QUALIFYING CONDITIONS Current UA Honors Student & at least 18 years of age REGISTRATION Students may register for the two-credit course in any of the following 3 ways below: As a Humanities Colloquium As a Social Science Colloquium As an Independent Study in Political Science The course content and assessment is identical across course registrations. For students entering in Fall 2018, the colloquium options will not satisfy the 3-credit requirement, so the independent study is the required option. For students who have already satisfied their humanities and social science colloquium requirements, the independent study option is available.
