The University Honors Program is highly selective, but does not rely on any single academic criterion. We recognize a broad range of excellence. Last year, most students admitted were in the top 5% of their high school graduating class, and nearly all were in the top 10%. Fifty-one were valedictorian or salutatorian. The middle 50% had SAT-I scores between 1340 and 1440 and high school GPAs between 3.82 and 4.00 on a 4-point scale.
