Established over 60 years ago, the LSA Honors Program carries a proud tradition of experiential learning based on one's major and interests. Approximately 350 students enroll each year, going on to graduate from all areas of LSA — from Comparative Literature to Physics, from Chemistry to Romance Languages. Honors students seek a comprehensive, challenging approach to their particular field of study, which culminates their senior year with a thesis. By participating in Honors, they are welcomed into an exciting, diverse campus community. These pages feature frequently asked questions, program information, and tools for the process. Welcome!

LSA is the place for foundational knowledge where creative thinkers come to engage with a complex, diverse, and changing world. To fuel our innovative environment, invest in the brightest people, and advance tomorrow’s breakthroughs, we need your support.
