The Honors Program has two applications – one for incoming freshmen and one for continuing/transfer students.
An incoming freshman is any student that is a graduating high school senior attending BGSU in the Fall.
A continuing student is any student with at least one completed semester at BGSU. A transfer student is a student with at least one completed semester at another college or university. There is no deadline; admission is on
a rolling basis.
Incoming Freshmen -
In reviewing applications, the Honors Program considers the student’s high-school academic record (including grades and courses
taken), standardized test scores, extracurricular activities and leadership record, and writing ability (as demonstrated in
a brief essay on one of several assigned topics).
A student wishing to apply to the Honors Program must provide the following:
1. The Honors online Application for Admission for incoming freshmen.
2. Application Response
3. Critical Thinking Essay: A written response to the news editorials about the biases the author possesses.
4. A current copy of your high school transcript. This is a separate one from the one sent to admissions.
Incoming freshmen may apply online or by completing a paper application. To apply online, students must have already been admitted to BGSU and created their BGSU email account. Print the Application Checklist to help ease the application process.
Continuing / Transfer Student -
Continuing / Transfer students must have a minimum university cumulative of 3.5. Read the Admissions Policy for Continuing and Transfer students. A continuing/transfer student wishing to join the program must also set up an appointment to meet with the Assistant Director
by calling 419-372-8504.
A first semester BGSU freshman should contact the Honors office if they wish to apply to the program.
