ACADEMIC ADVISING

The Honors Program gives students lots of choice and versatility in designing their own education, with strong advising options to get accurate information for informed decisions.

The University Honors Program has 2 full time Advisors, Mr. Dean Hebert and Ms. Liza Lebrun, who assist students through their entire four years at the University. Honors Advisors supplement College level advising (i.e. advising in your major) when necessary, but especially emphasize advising of Honors Letters & Sciences (undecided major) students and any student requiring additional attention. Honors advisors also help students to navigate the University academic system easily and efficiently (e.g., special exception guidelines, academic dates, transfer credit policies, etc.).

Additionally, Honors academic advisors coordinate workshops to help students with transition to the university, manage time effectively, decide upon a major, and gain additional opportunities such as internships or national scholarships.
