Honors Student Enrollment Perks

You get to enroll early, but you must read all instructions & be in good standing with CHC and UCI!

You need to take Honors classes every quarter until you complete the CHC requirements and you will need to plan your schedule around your CHC classes
UCI wants to help you fit everything in your schedule

What This Means:

You get early enrollment access (Monday of Week 8 during the Fall/Winter/Spring quarters)
You can sign up for up to 18 units during your initial window
Find your exact enrollment window in your UCI Registrar student portal, under “student profile”

Initial enrollment window: can enroll in up to 18 units
Students can find out how many units they have been authorized for (if over 18 units) in your UCI Registrar student portal, under “student profile”
Later: Cap goes up to 20 units after all students get their initial chance to enroll
See Registrar’s Calendar for specific dates of when unit caps lift to 20 units
Want more than 20 units? Ask your school advising office, as CHC staff cannot lift unit caps

Priority enrollment doesn’t guarantee you’ll get every class/class time you want
Priority enrollment won’t override course restrictions or prerequisites (check the “gray box” at the top of the course listing on the
Schedule of Classes website to see when restrictions lift)
Use your early window ASAP or lose your advantage, as other students will have their windows immediately following yours
Since summer session is considered optional, CHC students do not get priority windows for summer school enrollment at UCI.

Always have a Plan B for classes
Use your early window ASAP or lose your advantage
Spot conflicts? Talk to a CHC advisor early, well before the initial enrollment window
