Honors Program

Eligibility will be determined by the Admissions Office at the same time as an acceptance decision.  Eligible students’ application materials will then be forwarded to the Provost and Senior Vice President of Academic Affairs and Honors Program Directors for candidacy review.  A student will be offered acceptance into the Honors Program if s/he exhibits strong leadership and scholarship inside and outside the classroom. Furthermore, because the College Honors Program is built around honors-level sections of Medaille's General Education Core courses, talented and committed full-time day students pursuing any of the College's baccalaureate degree programs are eligible to participate.

Those students accepted into the Honors Program will be expected to maintain a minimum cumulative GPA of 3.2, as well as a B- or above in all honors courses.
