Why Honors?

BEING AN HONORS STUDENT MEANS:

  • Attending Honors designated interdisciplinary courses that fulfill your General Education requirements and are designed to be provocative, interesting, and stimulating
  • Access and exposure to many of WAU’s finest professors
  • Participating in smaller classes, as Honors courses will normally consist of 15 or fewer people, allowing the opportunity for more in-depth discussions and to make social connections with fellow honors students
  • Learning through activities such as study tours, concerts, plays, and exhibits while fulfilling General Education requirements
  • Conducting research and attending presentations at national institutions within the Washington, D.C., area
  • Engaging in a learning environment comprised of motivated and thoughtful students
  • The opportunity to develop an Honors project or thesis, thus enhancing professional opportunities or admission to graduate or professional schools
  • Challenging yourself to grow as a person through leadership and service
