What Honors Program Students Say

“Honors became a tight-knit educational program that opened my eyes to many opportunities. We attended a play together and went to dinner with the President of Lasell. It has brought us all closer together!” - Kaitlyn, Communication, Journalism & Media Writing

 

“I was nervous that Honors would be overwhelming. It isn’t at all. The requirements are simple and flexible. Honors courses fill standard requirements but bring you different experiences, and four of your projects are personally mentored by faculty. I loved them all.” - Meghan, Health Science major

 

“The Honors Program is totally worth it! If you want to explore, grow, and meet great people, this is for you.” - Alan, Psychology major
