The main goal of HIPS is to continue to draw intellectually-gifted and highly-motivated students to the University of Connecticut and thus continue the tradition of academic excellence that the Honors Program has established.
HIPS provides opportunities for prospective Honors students to learn about the challenging, engaging, and personalized environment offered by the Honors Program at the University of Connecticut.
