Honors Program students come from around Georgia, around the U.S., and around the globe. They build community at Georgia Tech by living together in Eighth Street Apartments, learning together in Honors Program classes, and attending events and participating in programming throughout the year.

Engaged People Make Our Community Great

Honors Program students are the co-creators of all that we do in the HP.  They help shape our vision and mission, plan events, and provide leadership through the Honors Leadership Council (HLC).
