The H4 Counselor Application includes information about your Honors College and WKU involvement and previous H4 history, if applicable, and essays.  The topics are as follows.  Each essay should range between 300-500 words.

  •  What lasting impressions do you want to leave with your H4 campers?
  • The Honors College motto is the "Spirit of Engaged Excellence."  How does this phrase describe your involvement in H4 as a counselor?
  • We ask our H4 campers to "begin their journey" at H4.  How will you use your own experiences, triumphs, and even your missteps to help guide your campers?  Please be as specific as possible.

 

Please note that an interview with Honors College H4 staff is included in the application process.  In addition to the online application and recommendation, applicants will participate in a 10-15 minute interview.  The interview is mandatory for completion of the counselor application.  Dates for interviews will be released with the application.

 

It is the responsibility of the applicant to submit one reference via the H4 Recommendation Form.  That form can be found at www.wku.edu/honors/h4/reference-form.php.
