Student Life and Facilities

Numerous academic and social opportunities are available to students in the Honors College, and Esterly Lounge in Engelhard Hall provides a central gathering place for honors students throughout their time at Rutgers.

Student-led activities and programs are presented and regularly organized by the Honors Student Council and its subcommittees.

Study Abroad

As part of our commitment to experiential learning, we encourage all students to spend time abroad. This has never been easier because Rutgers University has its own extensive and highly regarded study abroad programs, some of which offer multi-week opportunities that may be more practical for some students than the traditional semester-long experiences of the past.

The Honors College staff works closely with its students, the Office of Student Affairs, and the Study Abroad Office to help students take advantage of what is for many a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Our students can count on receiving help with picking an appropriate program, applying, finding and securing financial aid, and always having someone you can easily reach at the university.
