If PDS or Priddy scholars are interested in being a part of the Redwine Honors Program, they should stop by the office in Moffett Library, Room 112D, and visit with the program assistant director.
The priority deadline for incoming freshmen to apply is March 1. We will continue to accept applications after this date until the program is full.
