<p>If you're a current student at UVa, the place to go for one-stop shopping re. honors programs, scholarships, undergraduate research, and interdisciplinary studies is UVa's Center for Undergraduate Excellence. Unlike many large research universities that tend to focus more on research rather than their undergraduate students, UVa has a place specifically to help every undergraduate excel at UVa.</p>
<p>To quote the Center's mission statement: "The Center for Undergraduate Excellence's mission is to assist College students in finding an interconnected course of study that challenges preconceptions, builds intellectual curiosity, hones analytical thinking, and prepares students for lives of leadership and service. To this end, we advise students regarding national and College fellowship competitions, undergraduate research opportunities, and the creation of interdisciplinary majors. Students are encouraged to visit the center throughout their undergraduate careers."</p>
