University of Washington Honors Program

Honors Huskies represent a fascinating diversity of professional and personal experiences, with degrees from nearly every major on campus, now living and working all over the world. UW Honors graduates went above and beyond the requirements of their degree programs — forming broader, deeper connections along the way.

Participation in the Honors Ambassadors Group is a form of service to the entire UW community — supporting educational innovation and student excellence across all majors. Alumni, parents, faculty, staff, students and community partners are all eligible to participate in the group; what connects us is a shared commitment to supporting and celebrating past, present and future Honors Huskies. Ambassadors are invited to partner on events, awards, recruitment, scholarships and other special initiatives.
