My best piece of advice about Fulbright Honors is that the tower room is the most underrated spot to study on campus! The comfy chairs, free chargers and printers, and helpful Fulbright Honors staff make it the perfect space to crank out your work. Best of all, there’s usually a few pieces of candy to snag too!
