Honors Program
The Honors Program at Mount Saint Mary College offers high-achieving students the opportunity to work with their peers to enhance their educational experience. Admission into the program is by invitation from the Director of the Honors Program. Freshmen qualify on the basis of exemplary high school records, a composite score on college proficiency exams and SATs (or ACTs) that indicate the student's ability to meet the rigors and challenges of honors-level course work.
Students seeking to participate in the program after the fall term of the freshman year, as well as transfers students, qualify for consideration based on the following criteria: they have attained a GPA of 3.4 after a minimum of 15 credits taken at the Mount and they are recommended by a faculty member.
