Honors College

The Honors College welcomes applications from students who are entering the university as freshmen, have been enrolled for a semester or two, or are transferring from other colleges or universities. To apply for admission to the college, students must complete a short application form, provide copies of standardized test scores (SAT or ACT) and transcripts, and submit a sample of their writing.

Admission to the Honors College is competitive. Generally, continuing UH students and transfer students should have at least a 3.25 cumulative GPA, and first-time-in-college students should be in the top 10% of their secondary-school class and have scored 1200 or better on the SAT, or 27 or better on the ACT. These scores are not "minimum admission requirements," however, and all students interested in the Honors College are encouraged to apply.
