Honors College
From academic excellence to social responsibility, the Honors College cultivates the next generation of leaders and thinkers.
Believe in your passion, that you are here to achieve your goals and that you will be able to make it through this and any other challenge you face.
All the professors I’ve made connections with have truly been there for me throughout my college career. They’re always willing to help and encourage me to succeed.
The diversity of the student body, the great faculty and the smaller class sizes are a few of the great things about this university. The faculty are more than willing to help you succeed and the smaller class sizes make it much easier to make connections.
I love the inclusivity, the environment, and I feel like I truly belong at PNW. PNW is everything I could ask for and possibly more.
The Honors College was like a second family to me. Everybody was really close.
I’ve been able to build those connections with professors and talk with them one-on-one about class and my career. I loved having the opportunity to go to office hours for help with assignments and having them recognize me.
The Honors College has given me an incredible opportunity to be more involved in the community and has allowed me to go to a bunch of great places.
