About Honors at GCC

The GCC Honors Program provides intellectually stimulating opportunities to high-achieving students. We offer a wide range of classes across academic disciplines that challenge students intellectually while providing specialized curriculum and learning experiences. Our co-curricular experience introduces honors scholars to exciting events and activities that take place outside the classroom. These experiences facilitate academic, social, and intellectual growth for our honors students.
