About
Our goal for our Honors New Student Experience is to not only familiarize you with UAB but to get you engaged in your new city through a “Day of Service” with local community organizations. We strongly feel that a day of service is an excellent opportunity for you to experience city culture, learn about your community, and to see how you can stay engaged during your time at UAB.
