Who is eligible for the Honors Program?

The Honors program currently accepts applications from entering first-year students during the spring of their senior year in high school and from transfer students with at least two years remaining to complete their degree.

Most participants are invited to apply on the basis of their overall academic credentials. However, because strong candidates do occasionally slip past the selection process, any student is eligible to apply for the program.

While every application is considered on its overall merit, most candidates will present SAT scores of 1325 or better, with a minimum of 600 on each side; a solid academic curriculum for all four years of secondary school; plus a class rank in the top quintile. The admissions committee pays particularly close attention to the writing sample.

Please fill in an online application. (PLEASE NOTE: After you submit the application, the confirmation message appears at the TOP of the screen: You need to scroll up to see it.)

Applicants to the J. Ollie. Edmunds scholarship are automatically considered for the Honors Program and finalists are automatically accepted in to the Honors Program.
