Individual Meetings

Honors College admission staff members are available to meet with prospective students and families via individual Zoom appointments or by appointment in-person. Students can contact honorsadmissions@umd.edu to set up their individual appointment.

Host-A-Day/Virtual Hangouts

We’re so happy to see your interest in the University of Maryland’s Honors College. In the spring, newly invited students are offered a chance to engage with current Honors students. We offer two options to be paired with a current Honors student: 

  • In-person Host-A-Days (limited options) – an option to shadow a current student, attend their classes and get a day-in-the-life experience
  • Virtual Honors Hangouts – chat one-on-one with a current Honors student to ask questions, get info and find out about the student experience at UMD

Our Host-a-day form for Fall 2026 will be available starting September 14th. All prospective students are welcome!

Please note: The Host-A-Day program is for students only. In addition, this program is not a campus tour or an overnight stay program.

If you have any questions, please contact our admissions team at honorsadmissions@umd.edu.
