Honors Program Applications Close December 15th

Applications to join the Honors Program for current students and transfer students are closing on December 15th! Honors students are committed to developing themselves as scholars and professionals who carry forward the principles of innovation and imagination. Successful Honors students who get the most out of the program are those who want to explore their research interests, and welcome the challenge of completing the thesis project in their Junior and Senior year.

A high GPA is not a guarantee of admission to Honors. We also read application essays carefully for writing quality, and a clear indication that your academic and professional interests are a good fit for the program. We look for students who seek to prioritize in-depth research, creative, or professional works as part of their undergraduate careers.

SU students who choose not to apply by December 15th will have to wait until Fall 2025 to apply to the program. If you are interested in applying, please visit the Current Student Applicants and Transfer Student Applicants pages on our website, or email honorsadvising@syr.edu for more information.
