As an honors student, you may choose to live in the Honors Learning Community (HLC). Coed floors reserved for Honors Residence students in two residence halls provide you with specials areas and encourage you to participate broadly in life at Mizzou.
The Honors Residence draws students from the entire campus. Its many features-small
library and lounge, contact with faculty and special events-foster a socially
stimulating and academically enriching environment. For more information please
visit the Office of
Residential Life.
Honors Freshman Interest Group (FIG)
A FIG is a Freshman Interest Group, a living-learning community involving about 20 students who live together in the same residence hall and take three classes together in their first semester. FIG students also meet once a week for the 1-credit Freshman Proseminar, a course taught by the peer advisor for each FIG. Peer advisors are usually juniors or seniors in a major related to the subject matter of a FIG.
Each FIG also has a faculty mentor. Honors Freshman Interest Groups (FIGs) are available in a number of interest areas including pre-med, journalism, engineering, business, humanities, and pre-law. In most honors Figs, two of the three courses in the FIG are honors courses or honors sections of regularly offered courses. For more information about FIGs, please visit the Freshman Interest Group Web site.
