Honors College

One Day. One Community. Big Impact for Honors.


On CougsGive 2026, we invite our alumni, parents, and friends to come together for a day of collective support for The Honors College. Your participation helps us recruit and retain the very best students, expand transformational learning opportunities, and support the faculty who challenge and inspire them.

This year, we are focusing on four funds that give us the most flexibility to help students and faculty take advantage of varying opportunities:


2026 Funding Priorities

    Honors College Scholarship Fund 

    Honors College Fund for Experiential Learning 

    Dean’s Notable Achievement Fund 

    Buckley Honors College Endowment for Faculty Excellence 


Every gift on CougsGive moves our students forward. Just as important, every donor strengthens our momentum and shows the power of the Honors community. High participation helps unlock matches and challenges and demonstrates that Honors alumni and friends believe in what we are building together.

Whether your gift is $5, $100, $1,000, or more, your participation matters. Join us on CougsGive 2026 and help create opportunities for today’s students and tomorrow’s Coug leaders. Thank you for being part of The Honors College community.
