Welcome to the Honors College at the University of Utah

You probably already know that Honors provides an alternate way for you to satisfy your general education requirements in classes that are smaller, taught by distinguished and engaging professors, and that often use innovative teaching methods. But you probably don’t know that entering the Honors College also means that you are now a member of the Honors community–a group of students, faculty and community members who share a love of learning, the desire for excellence, and an engagement in the world of ideas.

You will find that the Honors College tries to create an environment that nurtures the whole person academically, socially, emotionally, and intellectually. Watch for announcements of special activities or opportunities on our website–we will post notices of lectures, socials, classes, and scholarship deadlines regularly.
