Prospective Students

In addition to representing all TCU colleges and achieving academic excellence, Honors students are leaders. They are award-winning scientists, published journalists, celebrated thespians and musicians, thoughtful entrepreneurs, world travelers, and community volunteers. They are fraternity and sorority members, as well as leaders in TCU’s Student Government Association. They are cheerleaders, athletes, and NCAA National Champions.

Honors students are involved, creative, and engaged high-achievers. Over the course of their education at TCU, The John V. Roach Honors College offers many advantages:

• Opportunities to attend an honors-only international Frog Camp before the start of freshman year, participate in unique intercultural experiences called Honors Abroad.
• Challenging classes that help bring out the full potential in students. Honors classes aren’t about giving bigger workloads; they are designed to cover the subjects of a normal class at a greater depth.
• Increased graduate school and career placement. Graduating with honors shows that a student has gone above and beyond most students in getting the most out of their undergraduate education.
