Cherysa, Please find attached a memo from University Honors requesting that the location of the UniversityHonors notation be moved on the transcript.  The Registrar’s Office has produced two transcripts toaccompany this request.  The first demonstrates the current location at the end of the transcript inthe student’s last term of attendance and the proposed version demonstrates their desire to have itrelocated to the beginning of the transcript.  To my knowledge, there is not any policy that governsthe location, only that a student can earn the designation which would then be present on thetranscript, see the catalog description below: General Catalog – page 533Completion of an approved capstone project, and satisfaction ofall other University Honors requirements, willqualify a student for graduation with UniversityHonors distinction, which is noted on the officialtranscript. If approved the Registrar’s Office would make this effective for the next appropriate graduatingclass. I appreciate the review of the Senate to determine if this relocation is acceptable.  If you have anyadditional follow up questions, please don’t hesitate to let me know. Thank youBracken

Placement of University Honors Notation

In order to increase the prominence associated with graduation from UCR with University Honors distinction, University Honors respectfully requests that the placement of the University Honors notation on a student’s official transcript be moved from its current location, at the bottom of the transcript, following a student’s final term at UCR, to the top of the transcript.

Get ready for the 10-Minute Time Shift! Beginning fall quarter 2019, UCRclasses will start and end 10 minutes earlier. This means all classes will starton the hour or half hour and your academic day starts and ends 10 minutesearlier too. Check your schedule and don’t be late!
