ABOUT THE
PROGRAM:
 
The heart of the Honors College is the Honors classroom where faculty members offer opportunities for students to engage in learning that challenges the intellect and advances academic achievement. Students are encouraged to think critically, assess issues, make and defend arguments, and synthesize ideas.

Small enrollment in Honors classes allows students to take an active role in the learning process and grow intellectually. Honors membership is compatible with every major, so Honors College members from across the University come together in an academic community.

A list of Honors classes is posted on the Registrar’s website each semester, and the Honors College also posts a list on the web page each semester. Honors students can participate in priority registration, which allows them to register for classes before other undergraduate students.
