The Honors Program is designed to challenge students with a customized curriculum and reward their efforts through priority registration, scholarship, field trips, and guaranteed transfer agreements. Students who have demonstrated exceptional academic achievement in high school and plan to continue their pursuit in college and then at a four-year university are admitted to Reedley College under the designation "Honors at Entrance." They begin a two-year sequence of classes and activities to prepare them for transfer to the best four-year institutions. Honors students are part of a close academic community of highly motivated and dedicated students and instructors. For more information, call (559) 638-3641, ext. 3416 or ext. 3364.
