Majors & Degrees

Honors Housing

As an honors student, you have the option of living in honors-specific housing.

Eligible first-year honors students live in Emry Hall. Eligible second- and third-year students have the option of dedicated honors housing, but locations vary yearly. Honors floors include a study lounge and Resident Assistants, who are upper-class honors students.

Room with your friends

Honors housing allows for roommate requests, though both roommates must be eligible members of the honors program. They must request each other on their housing applications or through the Residence Life office.

First-year students who wish to live in Honors housing can request it on their Honors application but must still submit a housing application with Residence Life. Incoming first-year students who wish to guarantee placement in Honors housing must be previously admitted or submit their Honors application by April 1. Notification schedules for honors housing are the same as for general university housing.
