Due to time constraints and, to be honest, some lack of interest, I may not complete the thesis I am required to produce for my university's honors program. If I don't complete it I'll still graduate and my GPA won't be affected, but I won't graduate with honors. Could this impact my acceptance to law school? I've already paid the seat deposit to the school I intend to attend, but could they revoke my admission for losing the honors degree?

Very doubtful. Is the thesis graded? If not then you really have no excuse for at least turning in something. It doesn't have to be brilliant.

I've directed some undergraduates in honors theses. Let me tell you something, I've never seen a single one that I considered a lot of work. I don't think this will affect your offers of admission, but keep that in mind. You're continuing a habit of misjudging the difficulty of work that won't serve you well in the future.

Couldn't see any of them caring if your GPA doesn't drop.

This is honestly the most reassuring thing I could have heard.

What makes you think the offer they extended was ever contingent upon graduating with honors?
