New CWI Honors Program Now Accepting Applications

Published: June 27, 2022

Maximize your educational experience and receive a $1,000 scholarship in College of Western Idaho's (CWI) new Honors Program. Applications for Fall 2022 are open now through Saturday, Aug. 13, to first time, full-time, degree-seeking students.

Students accepted into the Honors Program will have the opportunity to supplement their degree with diverse courses, work closely with honors designated faculty, hear from President Gordon Jones, connect with classmates who share similar goals, and participate in events each semester within the CWI community. Transfer partnerships between local and regional institutions are available, and students will receive intentional advising and mentoring from CWI faculty and staff. Students in the Honors Program will also be eligible for membership in the Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society and have the opportunity to engage in community service both within the CWI community as well as the Treasure Valley at large.

“We're delighted to welcome a diverse group of students into the Honors Program cohort and are excited to walk alongside them as they develop into life-long learners both in and outside of the classroom,” said Honors Program Coordinator, Michal Yadlin. “We're looking forward to the Honors students working to achieve their program degrees along with an opportunity to hone the skills that are vital in becoming active and curious global citizens.”

Apply by July 29 for free CWI swag! Visit the Honors Program page for more information including benefits, admissions requirements, scholarship opportunities, expectations, and more. Contact honorsprogram@cwi.edu with questions.
