FRESHMAN HONORS LIVING & LEARNING COMMUNITY
The Honors Living & Learning Community is a highly selective and challenging program that allows academically advanced students to live together, collaborate on ideas, participate in challenging research concepts and grow as a student, while developing connections with like-minded individuals. Freshman Honor students live in one dedi­cated wing of Faulkner Residence Hall, take select Honors courses and participate in a summer reading program, guest lecture series and other opportunities to be leaders on campus.

APPLICATION CONSIDERATIONS
In selecting students for the Freshman Honors Living and Learning Community, the Admissions Committee looks for a combination of characteristics that reveal the potential to meet the academic demands of being an Honors student; the motivation to take full advantage of the academic, social, and experiential opportunities that the Honors Program provides, and the willingness to contribute productively to the Honors Program and the Freshman Living and Learning Community.
