UT YCS Fellows Application Open, Deadline 11/9
We are thrilled to announce the sixth year of our partnership with UT Austin’s Youth and Community Studies. One of the major goals of the ACC Honors Program is to offer our students civic leadership training that will enhance both their transfer opportunities and their résumés. Thus we have partnered with UT’s College of Education, whose faculty and staff have designed two academic and experiential learning opportunities for a maximum of 40 ACC Honors students. All Honors students who have taken/are taking a minimum of one Honors course (or are registered for Honors courses in Spring 2026) are eligible. All majors are welcome to apply. We can take a maximum of 40 applicants, so apply to become a YCS Fellow today. The deadline for applications is November 9th (11:59 pm). Honors Program staff will verify your eligibility. Students will receive notification of acceptance by November 17th.
