Honorary means that you haven't exactly done anything to receive the award.  You may have done something  in the community, so your Alma mater will give you an honorary award to say thank you.  An Honorable award means that you worked hard and you get an award saying that you achieved your goal.

A high school diploma is just what you get when you graduate high school. You need this for even the menial jobs nowadays, and it's very important. This requires four years of fairly easy to very intense study.\n\nA BA is a bachelor's degree in the arts, which is basically four years of college. BAs are becoming the norm now for education, where most office jobs and jobs requiring any intellect require a college degreee. When people say they've been to college, they usually mean they have a BA or a BS, which is a bachelors in any science field.

A Master's Degree is one step above a Bachelor's Degree.  It is usually achieved by one additional year of study.  You might see people with an MBA, which is Masters of Business Administration.  However, an MD is not a Master Doctor, but is viewed in the Latin way, Doctor of Medicine.

An Associate degree is a two year degree.  Some jobs only require this type of degree like LPN or medical assistant, some management positions etc.\n\nBS and BA are Bachelor's degrees, these are a four year degree. A BS stands for Bachelor of Science degree and BS stands for Bachelor of Arts Degree.  Although the titles are a bit different the only real difference between a BA and a BS is that a BA requires a foriegn language and BS doesn't.\n\nA Master's Degree is after the Bachelors. You can not pursue a Master's degree without a Bachelors.  Usually the Masters takes an additional two years of school past the four for a Bachelors and the classes are often offered in the evenings and part time since most people get a full time job with their Bachelor's and take their Master's courses around their schedule.\nA Phd is a Doctorate.  This is as high as you can go.  You have to have a Master's to pursue a Phd.  Most people take up to ten to twelve years to get their Phd degrees and in order to be awarded a Phd, the student must submit a "thesis" which is usually a very long, detailed report on the subject in which they are pursuing their degree.  Everyone that I know that has written a thesis has taken several years to complete it even though they were completely finished with their classes.

In the source, you can find the different application forms to nominate someone.\n\nSome details from the official site of UK's department of Culture, media and sport:\n\n\nTimetable for the Honours process\n\nHonours lists are announced twice every year, at the New Year and on the Queen's Birthday in June. We accept nominations at any time of the year. However, we work on each list several months ahead of actual publication, therefore we need to know well in advance if a nominee is due to stand down, retire or otherwise end their involvement with a particular activity. Honours should be awarded to people who are still performing the service for which they have been recommended. It is unusual for someone who has been retired for more than 12 months at the time of publication of the list to be awarded an honour.

Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery, or in Latin Medicinæ Baccalaureus et Baccalaureus Chirurgiæ (abbreviated MB BChir, MB BCh, MB ChB, BM BS, MB BS etc.), are the two degrees awarded after a course of study in medicine and surgery at a university in the United Kingdom and other places following its usage, such as medical schools in Australia, Hong Kong, Malaysia, Singapore, New Zealand, Jamaica, South Africa, Pakistan and India. The naming suggests that they are two separate degrees; however in practice they are usually treated as one. (At Oxford and Cambridge it is/was possible to be awarded the two degrees on different dates.)\n\nThe degrees are the Commonwealth equivalent of what is known elsewhere as the degree of Doctor of Medicine (MD). In countries that award bachelors' degrees in medicine, however, the MD refers to a Higher Doctorate, and is reserved for medical practitioners who do research and submit a thesis in the field of medicine.

There must be some variation in terminology here, perhaps regional, more likely national.\n\nIn the United States, a degree is, technically, a title awarded at the end of a course of study above the secondary level.  For undergraduate degrees, the program--even if it's not an Arts degree such as an AA or BA, but is a technical one such as an AS or BS--includes some general education component.  At the graduate level, degrees are awarded in both research disciplines and in professional programs.  It is precisely because the degree is a title that it will often appear before or after an individual's name, e.g. Jorge Smith, BA; Fred Singh, MBA; Dr. Ellen O'Garcia.\n\nA diploma is a document which is a record of graduation from an educational institution.  (And it is true that high schools do hand out diplomas, though they confer no degrees upon their graduates).  At the college/university level, a diploma is often handed to a graduate as part of the degree-conferral process.  Those who listen carefully at college/university graduation ceremonies will often hear the moment at which a university official pronounces the degrees as conferred on the graduates.  This usually happens separately from the handing over of the diploma, the record of the degree.\n\nFor undergraduate post-secondary programs which are technical in nature, those without a general education component, typically skill- or job-focused, it is usual for the student to receive a "certificate" as a record of the accomplishment.

Having been an honorary consul I can tell you that depending on the duties it is very simple indeed.  State Department regulations are not applicable to honorary consuls as they have no official diplomatic status, therefore no diplomatic immunity or need to present formal credentials.  Most of their duties are merely ceremonial, cultural or social and are totally volunteer.  They are not supposed to have a staff nor are they supposed to be paid for their duties.  A major difference of an honorary consul versus a consul general is of nationality.  An honorary consul is usually of the nationality of the host nation not the represented one.  To be selected an honorary consul requires the nation making the honorary consul to nominate the person through the embassy of the host nation who send on the notice to the State Department which merely records it.  To be made an honorary consul is a great honor but a tremendous amount of work.  You need to be nominated from the country and they must not have a registered Consulate in the city where you would be an honorary consul for obvious reasons.  You would need to contact the embassy of the nation you wish to represent, offer your services to HE, the Ambassador, and see if they wish to nominate you.  They will then send your request onto their Foreign Office who will ask their respective executive branch of government for a decision.  Then they will send the decision back to thei embassy who will contact you.  Good luck!

Actually, the honorary is "Holy Father." That's the custom of the Catholic Church ... "your grace" and "your emminence" are used for cardinals. Bishops and archbishops are "Bishop Smith," priests are "Father Smith" or "Father Tom," and monsignors are "Monsignor Smith."
