An Honors College corporate sponsorship is worth more than the actual dollar value of your gift: it is an investment in the top professionals and civic leaders of tomorrow.
George Mason University’s Honors College provides a pipeline of exceptional young professionals for nearly every industry. We support over 2,150 highly motivated undergraduates of every background and interest, preparing these students to lead in the workforce and to be active in the civic life of our region.
With this rigorous preparation, our graduates go on to work for the nation’s top employers, attend the most respected graduate schools, and receive prestigious competitive fellowships.
