The George M. Luckey, Jr. Academic Honors Program is an academically-enriched program that provides highly motivated students with small classes, direct and personal contact with faculty members, involvement in their research, and greater curriculum flexibility. No more than 40 students per year will be admitted to the program. Those who are admitted will receive the Honors Scholarship. This scholarship covers tuition, room and board, fees and books. Honors students will also receive up to $1,500 toward the cost of a required education abroad experience.

Students will be required to:

  1. Seek Undergraduate Research Fellowships, and to keep records of involvement in research, presentations and publications;
  2. Complete 80 hours of approved service activities during their four years in the program and to keep records of their activities;
  3. Develop the ability to learn independently through three required experiences - self-education, honors-enhanced study and the senior honors project; and
