University Honors Student Association
What is UHSA? PDF Print E-mail

The Association exists to promote the interests and development of high ability students at the University of Minnesota.  
 
The Association’s purpose is premised on the belief that in addition to achieving excellent academic records within their field of study, Honors students should be actively engaged with both other academic departments at the University and with the community outside of the classroom. The Association strives to offer Honors students activities and programs that focus on Professional Development, Community Service, Social Development, and Academic Enrichment.
 
The Association also serves as a liaison between Honors students and the University Honors Program faculty and staff.
