Barrett Online

A fully realized honors experience. Online.

History of Barrett Online

In the past, the Barrett experience has only been available to ASU undergraduates studying at the Downtown, Polytechnic, Tempe and West campuses. In the fall of 2021, Barrett welcomed its first-ever cohort of ASU Online students as part of an exciting pilot program to explore expanding access to the unique honors curriculum and experience.

Barrett Online is now a formal campus and student pathway to honors education at Arizona State University. Students may join Barrett Online for Fall and Spring semester start dates. We are proud to offer a Barrett Honors experience to online students who reside in Arizona, the United States and international locations.
