Midrise Residential Honors College

   Purpose:
The Honors Residential Scholars community was built to establish a strong formal and informal network of support between residents and members of the NSU academic community.

   How It Works:
All residents in the Honors College are considered Junior Fellows. In addition, the Honors College houses a “ Scholar-in-Residence” who is a NSU faculty member. Senior Fellows are non-residential faculty members that hold classes in the college as well as host non-formal activities such as dinners in the commons room.  This allows the staff to plan and implement programs that will be geared towards a students’ academic pursuits and also gives the students an opportunity to begin networking within their academic cohort.

  Who Can Participate?
Students who have a 3.0 cumulative GPA and are members or recipients of one of the following Honors Programs:  DNIMAS, STARS, OCR, CMR, Board of Visitors Scholars, Presidential Scholars, Craig Scholars, and recipients of the Barnes and Noble Scholarship.

 

  Students with a GPA of 3.0 and above who are not members of the Honors College will be considered for assignment to the Midrise Residential Honors College based on availability.

 

  DNIMAS
