The Honors Program is open to all majors. Students take two or three Honors courses each semester in their freshmen year followed by one to two Honors courses each semester thereafter. See Honors Program Courses for classes with Honors options.
- For current Felician students to be accepted into the Honors Program, applicants must have a 3.5 average after midterms in first semester, three faculty letters of recommendation, a review of high school grades and ACT/SAT scores, be a first semester freshman enrolled in at least twelve College-level credits at Felician and complete a one semester Honors probationary period. A decision will be made by the Honors Director, pending a review of the submitted materials.
- Transfer students must meet the same criteria, except that, since they are entering with prior college experience, they must complete a minimum of 12 Honors credits and compete 45 hours of service prior to graduation. Any appeal of the Director’s decision will go to the Honors Advisory Board.
Honors students must complete a total of 90 hours of volunteer service across 4 years and may become members of the Honors Students Association, which is an extracurricular organization on campus that undertakes group service activities, sponsors field trips, and conducts fund-raising.
