===Honors programs===
Hunter offers several honors programs, including the Macaulay Honors College and the Thomas Hunter Honors Program. The [[Macaulay Honors College]], a CUNY-wide honors program, supports the undergraduate education of academically gifted students. University Scholars benefit from a full tuition scholarship (up to the value of in-state tuition only as of Fall 2013, effectively restricting it to NY state residents), personalized advising, early registration, access to internships, and study abroad opportunities. All scholars at Hunter are given the choice of either a free dormitory room at the Brookdale Campus for two years or a yearly stipend.<ref>[http://macaulay.cuny.edu, "Macaulay Honors College at CUNY-Hunter College"] December 1, 2007</ref>

The Thomas Hunter Honors Program offers topical interdisciplinary seminars and academic concentrations designed to meet students’ individual interests. The program is open to outstanding students pursuing a BA and is orchestrated under the supervision of an Honors Council. It can be combined with, or replace, a formal departmental major/minor.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.hunter.cuny.edu/honors/ |title="Thomas Hunter Honors Program", December 1, 2007 |publisher=Hunter.cuny.edu |access-date=June 29, 2014}}</ref>
