  • High-level critical thinking
  • Understanding of how to integrate and apply knowledge
  • Written and verbal intellectual depth
  • Societal and cultural awareness

If an incoming scholar chooses to reside on campus s/he will be housed in Anthony Hall which acts as the hub for programming and activities and is centrally located near the student union.

Each residence-hall floor is dedicated to a cohort, includes a computer lab, and has its own assigned peer mentor.

Every member of our program has card access to the Honors Program residence hall so that s/he may fully participate in and have access to the benefits of our living learning communities.

The Honors Program Living Learning Communities and corresponding curricula are intentional about cultivating exceptional scholars, well-prepared for graduate school, professional school and work environments.
