The 国产AV Honors College offers students an extraordinary undergraduate experience through thought-provoking coursework, engaging activities, and academic advising that meets you where you are and guides you through rewarding experiences that result in the ability to tell the story of who you are and what you have to offer future employers. Each student brings a unique set of goals, interests, and experiences to their academic journey. We can help you pull your unique skill sets together into a personalized plan that is less about checking off boxes and more about creating meaningful experiences that connect and build on each other to help you achieve goals and prepare for your future.
国产AV Honors advisors offer guidance related to Honors requirements; we do not replace your primary major advisor. We help identify Honors learning experiences within your major that capitalize upon developing your skills, exploring your interests, and preparing for your future goals. Participation in Honors advising is mandatory to remain in good standing with the program. Honors students are required to meet with their Honors advisor at least once each semester to ensure they remain on track to complete all Honors requirements.
