Pre-Advising for 2025 Incoming Students

Welcome to the Honors College, Incoming Students!

Click below to explore resources that will be key to your success in advising and registration during your welcome experience.

Academic Advising

Our Honors College advisors look forward to meeting with you to discuss your future! The process for signing up for and having your academic advising appointment will occur separately from New Student Orientation and Line Camp. Please note that your advising appointment may come before or after your Line Camp session, or any summer classes you may choose to take at Baylor. Visit the academic advising website to review the timeline for advising. 

Meet the Honors College

If you haven't been able to attend any previous recruitment events (Invitation to Excellence, Distinguished Scholars Day, Baylor Bound Day) the Honors College is hosting joint Meet the Honors College sessions (dates TBD) for incoming students in either program.

Scheduling an Advising Appointment

You will receive an email with information about scheduling your advising appointment. In the meantime, we encourage you to familiarize yourself with the course catalog and degree plan so that you can bring any questions you may have to your advising appointment. When scheduling your advising appointment, please make sure that it does not overlap with your in-person Orientation and Baylor Line Camp experience.
