Admissions Requirements

Beginning undergraduate students with 3.5 or higher high-school GPA's and SAT scores of 540 on each of the subtests (or, if the SAT is not available, a score of 22 in the Reading, Math, and Writing subtests of the ACT) may apply to the Program. Due to limited space in the Program, not everyone who applies is accepted; those who are accepted tend to excel in at least one of these areas:

  • GPA
  • Test scores
  • Extracurricular activities
  • Letters of recommendation, or
  • Entrance essay.

Applications are processed on the following schedule:

If you apply by this date... You will be notified of your status by this date...  
November 15 December 15  
December 5 December 30 Note: This application deadline is for students applying to enter the Program Winter or Spring quarters only.
February 15 March 15  
March 10 April 1  
April 5 April 25 Note: Applications are received after March 10 will be processed as space is available in the Program.
May 5 June 5  
July 5 August 5  
September 10 September 25  

Transfer students may apply with a 3.5 or higher college GPA; entrance requirements are similar for transfer students as for beginning undergraduate students, but high school GPA and test scores are not as important for those with at least 30 units of college credit.

To apply, fill out the application form (you can print it out and complete it, or you may contact us for a printed version), and submit it along with your entrance essay. Note that your entrance essay for the Honors Program is in addition to your entrance essay for La Sierra University, and admission to La Sierra University is a prerequisite for admission to the Honors Program.
