The Honors Scholar thesis deadline (April 29) is about three weeks away for May 2016 degree candidates. With the approval from their thesis supervisor and Honors advisor, students may have some options for extensions.
Routine two-week extensions (through May 13) may be allowed with approval of the student's Honors advisor and thesis supervisor. No email to Honors is required unless requesting a further extension.
A further thesis extension (for a date prior to the degree deadline) may be allowed with the approval from the student's Honors advisor and thesis supervisor. Requests for extensions beyond May 13, may be requested by emailing honors@uconn.edu. It is recommended that students aim for a date earlier than the degree deadline to allow for time for getting signatures, posting grades, and other processing.
