Why Hicks Honors College?

The Hicks Honors College is for high achievers with a vision for their futures — even if you don’t have it all figured out just yet. It’s for students who want to make the most of each opportunity, including those whose curiosity pulls them in multiple directions, those with a laser focus on their goals, and everyone in between.

The Honors College is a peer community in which students challenge and learn from each other. It is a community that enables future engineers, doctors, artists, researchers, teachers, entrepreneurs, intellectuals, and public servants to develop their peer and professional networks, to explore new interests, and to chase their ambitions, while learning to collaborate and lead.

The Hicks Honors College is about opportunity and success. It takes more than good grades in the right classes to stand out. You must build your resume, but more importantly, you must benefit from experiences that feed your imagination, develop your abilities and build character.

The Hicks Honors College offers a community of friends and peers in which to flourish. Honors encourages your curiosity and expands your horizons, while building your confidence and experience to lead. Honors helps you achieve your dreams through funding and opportunities for research, internships, and study abroad.
