Area of Study

The Honors Program does not offer a major, a minor or a degree. Successful completion of the Honors requirements is noted on students' permanent transcripts. Honors graduates are given special recognition at commencement and wear the honors' hood with their academic robes.

Some University students have the ability and desire to engage in academic challenges that extend beyond the Liberal Education requirements and their own majors. In the Honors Program, these students take interdisciplinary Honors courses in lieu of Liberal Education offerings and engage in an Honors thesis or project. As members of the Honors community, they collaborate with a faculty adviser and the Honors Council to plan their studies and to manage the responsibilities that correspond with the Program's freedoms.

Eligibility:

High school seniors with superior academic records or college students with a cumulative grade point average of 3.25 or above are invited to apply. Applicants should write a short letter stating interest in being admitted to the Honors Program. Such letters should be addressed to the Director, Honors Program, Bemidji State University. Students enrolled at Bemidji State University may personally consult the Director for information.

The quota of honors scholars admitted each academic year is determined by the number of qualified applications received. Students are appointed to the program on a competitive bases by the Honors Council, the faculty advisers to the Honors Program.
