Scholars Program

The DACC Scholars Program is an independent study honors program that will expand your intellectual horizons and enhance your academic experience. The program provides additional intellectual stimulation, academic challenge, scholastic opportunity, and personal enrichment beyond the confines of the classroom. In this program, students complete a total of four independent study projects in eligible classes prior to graduation. The scope of these projects is limited only by your own creativity and effort. In addition, members participate in at least 2 special scholar's activities each semester. Because DACC is a member of the National Collegiate Honors Council, completion of this program is usually transferable to honors programs at four year universities. For more information about this program, please contact Ronnie Johnson, Director of Scholars Programs, at 217-443-8869 or at r.johnson@dacc.edu.
