The SBU Honors Program is an invitation only application process. Qualifying high school seniors and transfers will be invited to attend Scholars Day to compete for additional scholarships. Scholars Day will serve as a student s interview for the Honors Program if they desire to be considered for the program.
The Scholars Day competition is comprised of an essay, interview, and application. Students desiring to be considered for the Honors Program will indicate this on their application.
Students are guaranteed an additional scholarship for participating in Scholars Day and will be notified two weeks after the event of their scholarship amount and if they have been accepted into the Honors Program.
Eligibility criteria for first-time freshmen include:
Applicants must first complete an application for admission to SBU. Eligible students will then receive a Scholars Day application and will attend Scholars Day. Selection is limited to 1<% of the freshman cohort and includes consideration of high school student s leadership, scholarship and service, as well as their Scholars Day essay and interview
For most honors students, there are only three to five extra credit hours in addition to their other degree requirements. These include two one hour honors colloquiums and the Honors Capstone project, which can be 1–3 credit hours. Honors courses are not designed to be more difficult; however, they are designed with an Honors Scholar in mind. The format of the class and the teaching style of the professor stimulates discussion and challenges students to apply higher order thinking skills.
Students who have completed fewer than 30 credit hours when they enter SBU will take the traditional honors track. Students who have completed 30 or more credit hours will take the accelerated honors track. Both tracks will complete 15 – 20% of their SBU curriculum in honors coursework. Both tracks take the Honors Core. Traditional track takes at least 12 hours of Honors Electives. Accelerated Track takes at least 6 hours of Honors Electives.
