Who is eligible for the Reaud Honors College?

If you are enrolled at 海角社区 or at another college, you still have the opportunity to join our Reaud Honors community! To be eligible for admission into the Reaud Honors College, you must have at least a 3.7 GPA. You are ineligible if you have taken any college readiness courses. 

If you have 45 or more credit hours, you may still submit an application and our advisor will review your transcript to ensure you have an honors pathway.

Are scholarships available for outstanding transfer students?
