Every Honors student meets with Program Coordinator Kerrie Dufseth each semester to register for classes. The student enjoys individualized attention and early registration one week before the general student population. Ms. Dufseth sets appointments for the students and they discuss class options and enroll the student during the appointment so there is an increased chance the student is able to register for the classes they want.

The Honors House is a red carpet portal for UAF students entering into college life. It is located at 520 Copper Ln. on the UAF campus west of the Wood Center. We proudly announced our newly refurbished house as of Fall 2011 to create a warm and welcoming atmosphere. This spacious and renovated day use facility includes:

• All new kitchen applicances,
• Three student computer labs with eight workstations,
• Conference room with an LED projector,
• New "smart classroom" with a computer station and state of the art technology,
• New laundry facility; free for the Honors student use, 
• New poster printer,
• Distance delivery system for distance education course work, and 
• Student assistant's office

We encourage students to consider the house as theirs, but with a few University and admistrative house use guidelines that can be found in our Standard Operating Procedure Manual.
