An Honors College sponsorship is worth more than the actual dollar value of your gift: it is an investment in the top professionals and civic leaders of tomorrow.
George Mason University’s Honors College powers the pipeline of diverse young professionals for nearly every industry. We attract, retain, challenge, and support over 2,100 highly motivated undergraduates of every background and interest, preparing these students to lead in the workforce and civic life of our region.
