Answer / Solution |

Honors Scholars Program Students may apply to become Honors Scholars. Scholars commit to completing four (4) courses for honors and four (4) Honors Experiences while maintaining an overall 3.25 GPA. Two of the four honors courses must be in different disciplines and one course should be an Interdisciplinary course. The interdisciplinary requirement may be waived if courses are taken from four different disciplines. In addition to other financial aid and scholarships, Honors Scholars may apply for Honors Program Scholarships on a per-term basis during their time in the program. Honors Scholars are also required to fulfill a Service Learning requirement before completing the program. Students must:
- demonstrate academic excellence, most commonly by achieving a GPA of 3.25;
- submit an application form, which includes recommendations from two faculty;
- have an interview with the Honors Program Director and a member of the Honors Advisory Board;
- commit to taking at least four courses for Honors credit during their time at Sinclair;
- commit to participating in 4 Honors Experiences and one Service Learning / Community Service project.
