What are the differences between Honors housing and regular housing?
Honors housing is made up of Honors Houses, which are floors of all Honors students, and Honors clusters, which include both Honors students and regular students on a floor: 1/3-1/2 of the floor tends to be Honors students. All the freshman students on an Honors floor will be in FHP together- they will be taking the same FHP classes. Honors housing is open to undergraduate students all four years at Iowa State. Honors houses and honors clusters tend to have more upperclassmen than regular housing.
