Austin Peay Honors Program

What is the Honors Program?

The Honors Program is designed to challenge students and provide opportunities for creative exploration and intellectual development. The Program allows motivated students to fulfill fifteen hours of core requirements in a more challenging, interdisciplinary environment. Additionally, the Honors Program offers a four-year option for students who wish to continue in the program during their junior and senior years.

Generally, a student should rank in the top ten percent of his/her graduating class, have a minimum ACT composite score of 26, and have a commendable high school record. However, these requirements are flexible. Any student with a strong academic background and an interest in more challenging and creative courses should apply.
