About the Glynn Family Honors Program
Welcome to the Glynn Family Honors Program!
There are many and varied possibilities for a truly outstanding educational experience at the University of Notre Dame. These include honors tracks in most departments, small but distinctive schools of architecture and engineering, justly famous programs in peace studies and public policy, one of the most extensive and robust international studies programs, and numerous other challenging academic possibilities.
One of the jewels in the crown is the Glynn Family Honors Program. This is a very small (100 out of the incoming class of nearly 2000) and select (SAT of 1500-1600, ACT 34-36, and class rank of 1-2%) course of study in Arts and Letters and Science for those with this particular academic motivation and ability.
The Honors Program is a great program.
We are confident such gifted and motivated students will find the Honors Program at Notre Dame a challenging yet exhilarating experience. Such students will be in small seminars with distinguished faculty, reading interesting stuff, and developing important skills with talented fellow students.
The curriculum will provide you with both the breadth and depth befitting a full university experience. The small intense seminars in the core university requirements are followed by one or two serious majors in basic fields (many choose to complete a major in each college, Arts and Letters and Science) culminating in a serious research capstone project.
What more could you want?
You’ll have all the opportunities a great university provides plus the personal attention of an elite liberal arts college. Add to this our cozy lounge (‘Arcadia’) and Wendy and you have an ideal learning environment. All that remains is to throw yourself into the life of the mind with openness and passion so as to realize your potential.
Then you are ready to accomplish great things!
