Black Honors College

At Sacramento State, we're making history. 

We've established the nation's first-ever Black Honors College (BHC), a groundbreaking program designed to empower any student interested in Black history, life, culture, and contributions. This innovative program opens its doors to incoming first-year students in Fall 2024 and welcomes transfer students in Spring 2025.

BHC cultivates the courageous leaders of tomorrow.

Students of BHC are provided holistic support as they take on accelerated, specialized coursework in addition to their daily studies. BHC students will benefit from:

  • Bi-weekly seminars on economic empowerment, self-determination, and courageous leadership
  • Paid internships and distinctive research opportunities 
  • A specialized residential living and learning program
  • Annual scholarship support

Join us in making history.
