What is Honors Housing?
All students living in Honors residence spaces are members of a Living Learning Community (LLC), in which they take Honors coursework and have access to Honors social, professional, and academic programming and activities.
“Learning communities can offer more: curricular coherence; integrative, high-quality learning; collaborative knowledge-construction; and skills and knowledge relevant to living in a complex, messy, diverse world.”
Students who participate in these types of communities tend to earn higher grades, graduate on time, and feel more connected to the university.
Honors students are not required to live on-campus or in Honors housing, but they are able to apply to live in these unique communities. Housing classification is determined by year at the university rather than completed credit hours.
All housing applications and deadlines are filtered through Housing and Residential Education (HRE). The HousingU Application is available via Campus Information Services (CIS). Students can access it on their student homepage via the Student Housing tile. For questions please contact housing@honors.utah.edu
