TESTIMONIALS


"
The Honors Program was EXACTLY as a few Honors Candidates first described it to me: very demanding yet extremely rewarding.  It's like grad’ school; they treat you like adults/graduate students and you have all the responsibility that goes with that...and the faculty have all the expectations that go with that too.  It was a great training experience for my graduate work. Being around the best and brightest at the University of Hawaii was very similar to being with the best and brightest musicians in the world here at the New England Conservatory, where students win over 25 national and international competitions each year."

       "Thanks largely to the wonderful UHM Honors Program, I was accepted with funding to several graduate programs. It was a difficult decision, but I finally settled on Stanford University, where I am pursuing a PhD in Japanese literature."

"Winter 2006 is my secondquarter here.  Life at Stanford is great, and I'm really enjoying  my studies. I miss Hawai'i and UH Manoa, as always, and I am most grateful for the experience I had in the Honors Program and for the excellent preparation I received for my graduate studies. "
