The Honors Program provides a cohort learning experience for top undergraduate Robinson College of Business (RCB) majors who strive to excel academically and accept the challenge of becoming strong, exemplary global business leaders. Honors classes will be offered for the junior business core courses, junior communications course, RCB electives, and Business Policy (capstone). A total of 27 hours of honors classes must be taken to graduate with honors. Students are strongly encouraged to participate in a study abroad program. In addition, at least one professional/social event for the RCB Honors students will be offered each semester. Honors students will also have the opportunity to network with Atlanta business professionals by serving as RCB student ambassadors at both the RCB Hall of Fame dinner and RCB Alumni Awards program. The RCB Honors Program presents students with a forum for unique opportunities, special recognitions and enhanced career prospects, while enriching the quality of their education.
Full-time students majoring in business who have completed at least 45 hours with a GSU grade point average of 3.5, or junior transfers who have a transfer GPA of 3.5 and SAT score of 1200 may apply. An interview with the faculty director of the RCB Honors Program is required for admission into the program. Students who have participated in the Freshmen and/or Business (sophomore) Learning Communities are encouraged to apply.
Students must maintain a 3.5 grade point average (GPA) in order to remain in the honors program. A student whose average falls below 3.5 will be given up to two academic terms in which to attain a 3.5 GPA again.
Students who complete the RCB Honors program will receive special recognition at the RCB Honors/Awards program. In addition, the recognition will be recorded on the student's transcript and diploma with an honors seal.
RCB honors students will have the opportunity to live at the special Honors section of student housing.
