招生 Requirements for 荣誉

Our typical first-year honors student has a GPA above 3.5, class rank in top 25%, and other credentials such as excellent writing skills, leadership activities, 和更多的. The SAT/ACT score is not required because the college is test-optional, but if you have taken such tests, the results can be helpful. We do not rely solely on any one detail, appreciating diverse talents and abilities, so there’s no reason not to apply if you’re motivated. In fact, motivation is one of the strongest signs of a successful college honors student.

应用程序的文章

The honors essay is the most vital piece of your application. The ability to write clearly and effectively is a characteristic of successful honors students and will weigh heavily in your favor.

I am a current student or transfer candidate. How do I apply for honors?

The 荣誉项目 welcomes applications from current college students. Eligible candidates should have a current 3.4累积绩点, complete a full application, and request two brief faculty recommendations that can be delivered by email. The evidence of college performance and faculty endorsements are prioritized over any previous high school record.

Can I transfer any previous honors courses to 哥伦比亚大学 from another honors program?

Students who transfer from another college honors program may receive selected credit for previous honors work.

Do high school AP/IB/Dual-Credit courses earn college honors credits?

Assuming required scores, credits earned from Advanced Placement, 国际 Baccalaureate, or dual-credit courses are counted by 哥伦比亚大学 toward graduation, but they do not earn honors hours toward completion of the program.
