University Honors The University Honors Program provides curricular offerings, programming, and benefits to undergraduates who have superior academic records. Students earn the designation "University Honors student" in one of two ways. Entering first-year students with outstanding academic credentials are accepted into the Honors Program. Students who have achieved a 3.5 grade-point average and successfully completed a minimum number of Honors-designated courses at the end of their first or second years are also eligible to earn entrance into the University Honors Program. All University Honors students are expected to maintain at least a 3.5 grade-point average. The John W. Berry, Sr., Scholars Program is the University of Dayton's most selective and prestigious university-wide academic program. The Berry Scholars Program provides unique opportunities for academically gifted undergraduate students to develop their skills and talents in an intimate, supportive, collaborative, and leadership-oriented educational environment. Each year a maximum of 30 entering first-year students from the four undergraduate divisions-Arts and Sciences, Business Administration, Education, and Engineering-are selected from the pool of applicants. Participation in the program entitles these students to numerous benefits and privileges, including eligibility for the prestigious four-year, full-tuition John W. Berry, Sr. Honors Scholarship. The Berry Scholars Program curriculum consists of a sequence of six required Scholars Seminars, an Honors Thesis project, and an optional Senior Colloquium in Faith and Reason. In most instances the seminars fulfill University requirements and fit well into each student's regular course of study. The Honors Thesis is a major research or service-learning project selected by the student in their junior year and completed, with the assistance of a faculty advisor or advisors, before graduation. Honors Thesis grants are available to support research-related expenses. Berry Scholars also participate in required Leadership in Community and Service Programs, engage in required and supported international learning, and maintain a 3.5 or better grade-point average
