All proposers can submit ONE proposal.Students: Use your college email address in the proposal process and be sure to enter your honors director's contact information correctly—your director will be copied on all notifications. Remember, it is important to solicit and obtain the guidance and support of your honors director, faculty member, or mentor. When approaching them to discuss participation in NRHC, be sure to also ask about financial support for travel and registration costs.  Honors Directors: If you are submitting proposals on behalf of your students, you must initiate the proposal with your student's name and email address, creating a new account for each new proposal. There will be a place to add the honors director's contact information on each proposal as well.  As you embark on this creative process, please consider the following steps and guidelines:Step 1: Read the conference theme. The conference theme provides context for the conference and creates opportunities for dialogue. Where possible, connect your proposal to the theme. Connecting to the annual conference theme is encouraged but not required. This is a good time to set up a meeting with an honors director or faculty member to discuss potential ideas. Read the 2026 conference theme here (https://www.nrhchonors.com/conference-theme). Step 2: Choose your presentation format (https://www.nrhchonors.com/presentationsandstrands). Choose between a panel presentation, poster presentation, roundtable, idea exchange, or performing arts and film showcase. Which format is best for you? If you are not sure, ask your honors director or mentor for guidance. All proposers should feel free to submit work that speaks to their expertise and passions. View our archive of recent conference presentations (https://www.nrhchonors.com/presentation-lobby) for ideas and inspiration. Step 3: Next, review the disciplinary track descriptions (https://www.nrhchonors.com/presentationsandstrands) and decide which is the best match for your presentation's topic. Step 4: Write the proposal. Come up with an intriguing title that clearly states your project's intent (if there is a way to incorporate the theme into your title, go for it!). Your project proposal, also called an abstract, should be no more than 300 words. Use an objective, academic writing style (no first-person voice). Be sure to state the goal of your project—what will the audience learn? Include relevant statistics and data. Reviewing our rubric may help you to prepare your abstract. The evaluation rubric we use can be found here. (http://nrhchonors.com/presentationsandstrands). Step 5: Complete the CFP form and submit your proposal. Be sure that your director has reviewed and approved your proposal. The final deadline for proposal submissions is Monday, November 17th, 2025. Step 6: Proposal notifications will be sent out on Thursday, December 18th, 2025.If your proposal isn't accepted, you may still register to attend NRHC. Of course, you should receive permission from your honors program director if you would like the trip to be funded by your institution.  Find submission page here:https://www.abstractscorecard.com/cfp/submit/login.asp?EventKey=EEBZFOUO (https://www.abstractscorecard.com/cfp/submit/login.asp?EventKey=EEBZFOUO)
