Before you Apply: Students must be admitted to the University of Iowa prior to submitting an application for the Honors Program, but they do not need to accept admission to the university prior to applying for honors. 

How to Apply: Students will apply for the Honors Program through their Admissions Profile in MyUI beginning in September. If you do not see the application in your Admissions Profile, contact your admissions counselor to have the application added. There are no formal minimum requirements for entry into the Honors Program, nor are there guarantees of admission.

Housing: All housing inquiries must be directed to the Housing Team.
