One twin bed, a private bathroom, a lounge with a big-screen television and an on-site computer lab.
For most VCU students living on campus, such accomodations can seem more like an upscale hotel than a dormitory. But for the students living in West Grace Student Housing, such amenities are all part of dorm life. Those students are members of the VCU Honors college, a program for students who excel academically. Not only are they eligible for private housing, they also get to register for clases weeks before other students, receive special advising and have better opportunities to participate in undergraduate research programs.
However, many VCU students who might qualify for the Honors college aren’t aware of the program or its benefits.
