First-Year Students

If you are a entering FGCU directly from High School (this includes dual enrollment, IB, AP, collegiate high school, and such programs), your application to FGCU serves as your application to Honors.

December 1, 2012: Honors will begin notifying students who have been accepted into FGCU and who are eligible for Honors of their acceptance into the Program. These acceptances will be mailed out on a rolling basis until our 2013 class is full. Students who are eligible but for whom there is no remaining spot will be placed upon a waiting list.

Early January-Late February 2013: Accepted students will begin receiving our Honors acceptance letters. The letter will outline all of the important dates for the upcoming year. It will also contain a form that you need to return to us. This form must be mailed back to Honors postdated on or before May 1, 2013 to guarantee a student's spot in Honors for Fall 2013.
