Liberal Arts Honors Program - a challenging transfer program for the academically gifted student. Hudson Valley offers an academically challenging program for students who meet entrance requirements. The Liberal Arts Honors Program is an integrated, interdisciplinary program within the Humanities and Social Science areas.
Honors courses require more sophisticated reading and writing than most standard college courses.
The courses rely heavily on original sources rather than conventional textbooks, and stress a cross-disciplinary approach. Students may choose to combine study abroad with the Honors program.
