The combination of being a large honors program and having a top-10 ranking means that a sizable group of superb IU students is gaining access to honors courses, advising resources, grant opportunities, overseas experiences, extracurricular programs, and other high quality resources that are ranked among the best in the nation. When you sift together great students and vital resources, the possibilities are truly infinite. Outcomes at the HHC are real and substantiated: our students are accomplished inside and outside the classroom, as organizational leaders, early career scientists and artists, athletes and entertainers.
