Honors Program
The DU Honors Program cultivates student capacity for original academic inquiry and creative exploration.
Our students emerge as self-directed learners, encouraged to ask new questions and pursue their curiosities – both within the classroom and beyond.
Every year, the program recruits a diverse cohort of creative thinkers who want to go beyond the requirements – whether they were part of an Honors program in high school or not.
The three pillars of the Honors Program are our curriculum, our community, and our contributions to original research, scholarship, and creative activities.
Students from any major may be a part of the Honors Program. Information on admission to the Honors Program is available on our website. For more information, contact the University Honors Program at honors@du.edu.
Honors Floor, Community, and Enrichment
The Honors floor, located in Dimond Family Residential Village, is a residential opportunity for first-year students in the University Honors Program, though living on the Honors floor is not required.
In addition, the Honors Program provides its community of students, faculty, and staff many ways to come together through events and activities organized by the Honors Student Association every quarter.
Honors Curriculum and Requirements
Students graduate with University Honors upon satisfaction of the following requirements:
- Completion of Honors course requirements (Honors Program requirements are listed under Major and Minor Requirements for University Honors)
- Satisfaction of all requirements for distinction in at least one major (Distinction requirements are listed under Major and Minor Requirements for each major)
- Cumulative GPA of 3.5 or higher at graduation
Lamont School of Music
Students of all majors can pursue opportunities in ensembles, elective lessons, and classes offered by the Lamont School of Music. More information about these course offerings can be found online at our page about Opportunities for Non-Majors.
Performing ensembles are open to all DU students by audition, and rehearsals and concerts are held in the stunning Robert and Judi Newman Center for the Performing Arts.
Lamont offers nearly 300 performances each year, including musicals, operas, and prominent ensemble performances, as well as guest artist performances and recitals. Most of these are free to DU ID card holders.
Passion to Action: Living and Learning Communities (LLCs)
DU’s Passion to Action: Living and Learning Communities (LLCs) bring together first-year students and mentors who all share a common interest. LLC students prepare to contribute to the public good by connecting their learning across academic, living, and co-curricular experiences with a cohort of peers. Together, students:
Explore Your Passion. A unique set of three courses has been designed just for you and your peers. These 2-credit classes meet once per week to help you explore the issues that matter most to you. Your learning reaches beyond the classroom with field trips, performances, and guest speakers.
Build Connections. Through your first-year residence hall, you begin to build relationships with LLCs peers who bring similar interests and diverse experiences. In the dedicated LLC Suite and through LLC events, you connect with mentors who are ready to support your success and growth.
Design Your Future. LLC peers, mentors, and local experts help students to expand your worldview. With mentoring from the dedicated LLC team, you’ll design your future at DU – a future that turns your passion into action.
In the 2025-2026 academic year, LLCs are offered for first-year students. To learn more about LLC themes and the application process, visit How to Apply on DU's LLC website.
