Experiential Opportunities

Honors Programs

Honors students can deepen their academic experience even further through Experiential Global Learning. Many students can arrange for Honors credit for courses they take on an approved program.

If you have academic merit scholarships, note that you may not use them on Fee-Based Programs, as they are not based on UConn tuition. Instead, Experiential Global Learning and the Honors Program recommend that you consider a Tuition-Based Program, on which you may use such scholarships. You can view more information on the Honors Program website.
