Upon being offered Honors Program admission and scholarship, students must then confirm their interest by interacting with the Honors Program in at least one event during the academic year, which could include participating in a mock game, visiting the Freshman Honors Seminar class, attending a virtual information session, meeting with Honors during a weekday campus visit, or attending the Honors lunch during a large weekday or weekend visit event. These events are a great way to learn more about the Honors Program, meet the staff and students, and decide if it's a good fit.
