Honors programs at Rutgers challenge top students to commit to an academic program that will mirror graduate-level study. Rutgers’ honors scholars push themselves intellectually, through:
  • honors courses and seminars 
  • honors-only academic advising, faculty mentoring and residence life options
  • conducting original research and senior-year capstone projects
  • special trips, film screenings, museum exhibits, plays and other cultural events
Rutgers’ undergraduate schools and colleges select students based on specific eligibility criteria specific to the school's academic program. They share a single payoff: intellectual stimuli that will provide the edge in landing top jobs and coveted slots at the best graduate and professional schools.
