Dear Anirudh, I didn't realize that there was a page limit on the thesis submission... I would guess that this is an average length and the intention of the retirement is to prevent thesis submissions that are clearly incomplete / too short. You can apply to graduate with honors here: https://forms.gle/TZvSLMdGLzACMvYD9 The google form will accept a PDF of any length. If your paper has been published or preprinted, please include a link to it as well. -- *Erin Molloy* Assistant Professor Department of Computer Science University of Maryland, College Park Lab Website: *molloy-lab.org <http://molloy-lab.org>* On Sat, Feb 28, 2026 at 3:19 PM Anirudh Satheesh <anirudhs@terpmail.umd.edu> wrote:

Hi,

I hope you are well. My name is Anirudh Satheesh, I'm a senior CS student in the CS honors program graduating this semester. I recently finished a paper with Prof. Furong Huang that I intended to use for my honors thesis, but it is 26 pages, significantly longer than the 5-12 page limit listed on the website. I have tried to reduce the content, but due to the theoretical nature of the work, it is not possible to reduce it to this limit. Is there a way I can upload an appendix or supplementary material, or is it acceptable to submit in its current status?

Please let me know how to proceed.

Thank you, Anirudh Satheesh UID: 119605097 _______________________________________________ Honors-chairs mailing list honors-chairs@cs.umd.edu https://mailman3.cs.umd.edu/postorius/lists/honors-chairs.cs.umd.edu
