Honors Program

The Austin Community College Honors Program is designed to develop the abilities and potential of Austin Community College students as they begin their academic studies and prepare to transfer to a four-year college or university. The program has a focus on citizenship and leadership and offers courses in a variety of disciplines to help students develop their civic leadership understanding and abilities.

Recognized as high achievers by educational institutions, students who complete the ACC Honors Program and meet all major transfer requirements will have priority consideration for admission to specific four-year institutions.

Honors Program classes are taught by faculty interested in promoting scholastic excellence and enriching students’ academic experience with special projects, readings, and a wide variety of class activities.

The program provides a unique, seminar environment, featuring close interaction with exceptional faculty and other highly motivated honors students. Guest speakers, cultural events, and field trips enhance the challenging and creative learning experience.
