  • General Information

    The University Honors Program offers students a richer, more intense and challenging academic experience, as well as closer, more personalized contact with faculty and fellow students. Enrollment in Honors classes is limited to 20. Students must apply to participate in the Program. To be eligible, entering freshmen must have graduated in the top 15% of their high school class or have obtained a superior score on the SAT or ACT. A cumulative 3.3 grade point average is the criterion for admitting current or transfer students. Members must earn Honors credits in a minimum of one course per year and maintain a specified GPA to remain active in the Program.

    The program offers two options:

    1. - UNIVERSITY HONORS DEGREE

    2. - UNIVERSITY HONORS CERTIFICATE
