The
Honors College accepts applications from
students wishing to transfer from 2-year
or 4-year institutions. Admission decisions
will be based on an applicant's qualifications
and will be made on a space-available basis.
As a liberal arts and sciences college,
the Honors College offers a variety of
academic programs ranging from traditional
disciplines like biology and mathematics
to interdisciplinary areas such as Latin
American Studies and Law and Society. Students
are also able to design their own programs
of study in consultation with faculty.
For a detailed discussion of available
academic programs as well as graduation
requirements, see the section on Academics.
Priority is given for admission and scholarship
awards to those applicants who apply early.
See the section on How to Apply for application
deadlines and for a detailed description
of the process. Also, applications can
be downloaded here. It is important that
applicants send all their transcripts (high
school and college) and their standardized
test scores (SAT/ACT) to Florida Atlantic
University.
As a residential college that functions
as a real living-learning community, all
single Honors College students under the
age of 26 are required to live on campus
in our brand-new residence halls. For more
information about Residential Living see
the website section on Campus Life. Here
you will also find descriptions of our
recreational facilities, our dining hall,
etc.
Transfer applicants are welcome to contact
faculty members for more detailed information
about the areas which they plan to study.
Email addresses are available in the Faculty
section of this website.
