Come see what the Hicks Honors College has to offer!

The Hicks Honors College is an interdisciplinary program designed for high-achieving students that emphasizes experiential and active learning in small classes. This interdisciplinary program has all the resources of a larger state institution while maintaining a supportive community where you’ll get personalized attention and learning. Classes are led by expert faculty that will expose you to a hands-on educational experience. Hicks Honors College students represent the best that every new class of Ospreys has to offer: students with high intellectual ability, a strong work ethic, and a desire to get the most out of their college experience, both academically and socially.

What is the difference between a campus tour and an Honors tour?

On an Honors tour, you will get to know our hands-on Honors college and get a more in-depth look at what you will be doing as an Honors student at UNF.

Your tour will be led by a knowledgeable and friendly Swoop Squad member who is a currently enrolled student at UNF and is ready to share his or her experiences with you. The tour takes approximately 2.5 hours.
