Nobody is alike in the program. Many different majors are represented, and we have heated debates between differing opinions that are all the while respected and heard. Our class is a small family, a pod of dolphins, and it's reassuring to know I have so many intelligent and kind people I can turn to.”

Questions About Honors?

Yes, all majors—including Undeclared—are eligible. Because Honors courses substitute core requirements, double majors, student-athletes, and student leaders complete the program smoothly. Students in clinical programs (like Nursing or Education) map out their path early with the Honors Director to align coursework easily.

Honors courses are lively, discussion-based seminars focused on deep engagement, creative thinking, and exploring new viewpoints alongside professors who know you by name.

Absolutely! Honors scholars are student-athletes, Resident Advisors, Campus Ministry leaders, stage and music performers, tutors, and club leaders. The program is built to complement a full, vibrant college experience on The Heights.
