Program Overview
The English Honors Program offers lively and challenging seminars, the opportunity to do a long-term project in an area of special interest, and the sort of intellectual and literary community that you might find at a small liberal arts college. Students work closely with faculty members and peers in seminars and on a Senior Project. English Honors provides an excellent preparation for graduate school and many of our successful students have gone on to graduate programs in English, Creative Writing, Law, and Business, while others have found their niche in the numerous fields that value research and writing skills.

How to Apply
The Program enrolls 10-20 students each year, and admission standards are rigorous.
