The Honors College was a huge success in my transition to 淫性视频 College! I made so many friends within the program itself that 淫性视频 turned into family.  It is a great way to give back to the community and to make friends fast as a transfer student. All the Honors professors that I met had showed a great commitment to my academic learning and personal well-being. I am sure going to miss each and every one when I graduate in May. I am sure that I will be back to visit!
Ashley W, Social Work
Transferring to a new college is not always an easy thing to do. Change can be intimidating sometimes. I decided to be in the Honors College because I knew that it would offer me an opportunity to meet like-minded students, develop lasting friendships, and keep me focused on my grades and community service.
Heidi S., Biochemistry
When I first read about the Honors College, I immediately knew that this was something I wanted to be a part of. The program was designed to inspire students to become focused, yet, well-rounded learners and contributors to society.
Nicole S, Psychology
I very much enjoyed Dr. Deb and Economic Well Being. I also liked that there were other transfer students in my class so we were all in the same boat as far as being new to the school and the program.

If you've participated in a service project that really excited you, be sure to tell us why.

Housing

The Honors College works closely with the Office of Residential Life to place accepted Honors transfer students into the Honors Living Learning Community. However, demand sometimes exceeds the available space. We strongly recommend that all students interested in 淫性视频 housing for the fall semester apply for housing and send in their Housing Acceptance deposit to the Office of Residential Life as soon as they have made a commitment to attend 淫性视频. All Honors students, regardless of their housing preferences or placement, are full-fledged members of the Honors College and are eligible to participate in all events and activities. 

The main purpose of the Honors application is for us to get to know you better. Before filling it out, think about what you're passionate about, what makes you shine, what qualities you have that are truly outstanding. And before submitting it, be sure to proofread it and save a copy of the completed version for your files. You must complete the online application in one sitting. You cannot save it and come back to it later.  To avoid mishaps that can occur when completing online forms, we encourage you to view the , compose your responses in a separate word processing program, and then save them.  You can copy and paste your saved responses into the form fields in the online application. 


Reference

The application will ask you to submit the contact information for one reference, who we may contact to learn more about you.  You might choose a professor who has seen you in more than one setting, such as a club or lab as well as a class. Another possibility might be a mentor with whom you've worked closely on a project that's important to you both. A coach, supervisor at work, or group leader who has had the opportunity to watch you mature over time would also be appropriate references.
