Meet the Houses of University Honors

University Honors nurtures community and a sense of belonging through our houses. These groups, exclusive to UH, are named after navigational stars and are focused on helping you find and build a more connected community within our larger program. 

All first-year UH students are invited into a house based on their HNUH100 seminar section. You’ll bond with your housemates during Gateway Seminar, sparking a friendly rivalry between the houses that continues each year through the annual House Cup Competition.
