Global Citizen Scholars
Admitted Global Citizen Scholars join a cohort of 20-25 other students and are challenged to grow in understanding the most important challenges facing humanity, exploring their role in the world, and enacting changes to make a positive difference. The program prepares students for personal and professional lives that make positive impacts both in their communities and in our rapidly changing global society. The Global Citizen Scholars program also helps students develop competencies to make them more prepared for and competitive for 21st workplaces.
Students in the Global Citizen Scholars Program may choose any major; however, we
are particularly interested in students who study foreign languages and seek to study
abroad for a semester or longer. The Honors College recommends that Global Citizen
Scholars live on campus their first and second years as part of the Honors Living
and Learning Community.High school students with at least a 26 ACT and 3.5 unweighted high school GPA are
