A&T Honors Program

The NC A&T Honors Program allows motivated and gifted learners in any major to truly excel and make the most of their baccalaureate education.

With Honors seminars and specially designated Honors sections of general education courses; small class sizes designed to promote discussion, skill development, and critical thinking; and mentoring from faculty (particularly within one’s major), every aspect of the Honors Program is tailored to help students grow intellectually and culturally.

In-school benefits of the Honors Program include

Opportunities to attend cultural events, travel to conferences, and participate in leadership training activities—at little or no cost
The laptop loaning program, enabling students without computers to have the use of one during the school year
The ability to register for classes before the rest of the student body

160;The NC A&T Honors Program is a community of enthusiastic scholars on campus, preparing students for career-shaping challenges and a lifetime of creative expression and idea exploration.
