Welcome!

FSU has a long history of providing recognition and support for outstanding students through its honors programs.  The mission statement for these programs was provided by a faculty directive in 1932 that asked the President and the Faculty Senate “to provide enlarged opportunities for … students; to give them a challenge and an incentive: to develop initiative, resourcefulness and reliance; to present knowledge in terms of fields, not courses.”

Today the university supports that mission through two well-established and highly successful programs: the University Honors Program and the Honors in the Major Program. As you will explore this site, you will learn more about these two programs and the services offered by the Honors Office.  You will also meet some of our outstanding students, faculty and alumni.  Many of our former students, you will discover, have gone on to become leaders in their academic fields and in their communities.
We hope that some day we can feature your success story on our Honors website!
