The honors program provides an interdisciplinary space for the development of students specifically gifted in the academic arena. By facilitating close relationships with our exceptional faculty, the honors program empowers these students as scholars, servants, and citizens, holding them to high standards within both the classroom and the community.
Students accepted into the honors program will have opportunities as:
Scholars, to achieve academic excellence through participation in research, production of an honors capstone project, and presentation of their project to the public at the Honors Symposium in the spring of their senior year.
Servants, to embody spiritual vitality through student leadership, participation in service projects on campus, and local missions projects coordinated with Campus Ministries.
Citizens, to engage with human need through Multicultural Life events, global and local missions trips, and involvement with civic life in the greater Seattle area.

Admissions Requirements

The honors program seeks students with a voracious appetite for learning—an innate curiosity that crosses disciplinary boundaries and finds in all academic fields signposts pointing toward God’s goodness, beauty, and truth.
