why college scholars?
experience the best of both worlds
College Scholars students enjoy a small liberal arts college type experience embedded within a world-class research university education. We embrace approaches to learning that prepare you to deal with complexity, diversity, and change.
take ownership of your learning
Within a diverse community of peers, scholars, and mentors who share an innovative spirit and commitment to service, you will be challenged and supported as you discover (or refine) your passions, pursue your goals, and prepare for your future.
be your best you
Through examining learning and knowledge in relation to an exploration of the self, we prioritize a rigorous academic experience along with the development of qualities that prepare you to serve your communities, our society, and the world at large; cope with life’s inherent discontinuities; and live a personally meaningful life.
Throughout your undergraduate career, and in collaboration with partners on campus and beyond, the Honors team is here to facilitate your academic, personal, and professional development, and to help make your process of learning and growing more enjoyable.
