"Applying to the UK Honors Program was probably one of the best decisions I made regarding my college career. It has given me so much opportunity to grow and be challenged, and I've only just completed my freshman year. I can't wait to see what else is in store for me as an upperclassman!" Chelsea Brislin
"The professors in the Honors Program are some of the finest professors at the university and to have the opportunity to be taught by them in such a small setting is truly exceptional for incoming freshmen." Katelyn Brown
"Not only does the Honors Program provide academic advantages, but there are social benefits as well. I met some of my best friends at UK in my first Honors class. " Luke Glaser
"No other outlet on campus will ask you to come in and talk about your future during your first week on campus. No other department will challenge its students to a grueling intellectual tournament of Trivial Pursuit. No other college offers more resources and more helping hands than the Honors Program, and you can find no better foundation for your plans in the future." Sarah Hayden
"In the Honors Program, there are professors who will ask questions without answers, papers that are a challenge of will on top of a challenge of wit, and an entire community of people just like each other - chronic challenge-seekers with a desire for academic excellence."

"We are given the an advantage of knowing when and where important University events are occurring, and we have the opportunity not only to attend, but also to participate. I have, through the Honors Mentoring Program, been able to attend some very interesting lectures from well-educated, accomplished individuals that have broadened my academic perspective." Drake Jackson
"From the incredible classes and professors to the helpful staff to the special student events to the student lounge, the Honors Program completes the UK experience in every way, providing a holistic, interdisciplinary learning experience for some of the brightest students in the Commonwealth, the nation, and beyond." Mallory Megee
"Being a member of the Honors community allows students to room in the Honors dorm, which is on North Campus. Because all of us are together, it is extremely easy to form study groups, walk to UK basketball games together, or simply go to Blazer and chow down with friends." Damarias Moore
"The student to faculty ratio in Honors classes allows students to get to know their professors on a much more intimate level starting with their first Honors class...my Honors classes have been the highlight of my day every semester that I have been at UK." |
Lindsay Oberhausen
"By far the best thing that has come from the Honors Program for me has been the sense of belonging and happiness I have found. I know I will experience even more benefits down the road, but thus far the greatest impact it has had on me is a change within myself." Jazmine Shoup
"Challenges, diversity, new perspectives: these are the things I associate with each of the HP classes and events that I have participated in. The Honors Program is about offering a new and exciting way of looking at an everyday situation, finding something equally intriguing about it, and discovering a little more about who we are as we are challenged intellectually, creatively, analytically, and socially. " Lane Springer
"As a member of the Honors Program, you are opened to numerous opportunities for scholarships, academic programs, community service, and many others than normal students may not be exposed to. One such program is the Journal/Journey Project, which I have had a chance to be involved with and have loved every minute." Amy Walsh
"We offer the Honors mentoring program that also encourages incoming students to have an upperclassman mentor. Having someone to talk to about classes, finding a building or just going to grab a cup of coffee is comforting because your mentor knows about the classes you are going through and is able to help."
