Highly motivated students at LSSU have the opportunity to develop their
abilities and skills in the University Honors Program. The program seeks to create a community of scholars characterized by strong student and faculty
interaction around an abundance of ideas.

Honors students get priority in scheduling, additional advising, their own hall for housing, membership in the honors student organization, and Alpha Chi National Honors Society. When you graduate as an honors student, your course transcripts and diploma will reflect the designation and you will be recognized during the commencement and academic awards ceremonies.
Honor students are invited to become members by a preselection process that requires a composite ACT score of 27 and one of the following:

  • 3.0 high school GPA
  • personal interview
  • faculty recommendation
  • essay of application
