Last month, we featured an article on honors colleges that may be found at both public and private universities across the U.S. Honors colleges are especially appealing to students who want to experience both “big college” life as well as the intimacy of a smaller college learning community. The website www.publicuniversityhonors.com can simplify your search for these types of programs.
The site includes lists of public honors colleges and universities along with rankings of many of the programs. Articles on the site address such topics as “Choosing a Public University Honors Program” and “College Value: Public Honors vs. Private Elites”. Many of the rankings are derived from U.S. News & World Report listings, so view these with a critical eye.
