  • How many High Impact Activities do I need?

    For most Honors Program students, the ways to meet Honors Engagement requirements using HI activities are:

    • High Impact Duo: Two HI activities
    • Balanced Trio: One HI activity, one FE activity, and one ME activity
    • Mixed Impact (Moderate Focus): One HI activity, and two ME activities
    • Mixed Impact (Foundational Focus): One HI activity, and two FE activities

    For students that are considered dual-commitment, you need only complete one HI activity.
