SAU Honors College

The SAU Honors College was founded in 2003 by Dr. David Rankin, president of SAU. Dr. Lynne Belcher served as founding director and is retired from SAU. The Honors College seeks and admits qualified students who seek to pursue a serious academic program with equally gifted peers and committed teachers. Honors classes are small and provide academically enriching opportunities for students and the faculty who teach them. Currently, SAU enrolls nearly 170 honors students and graduates about 66% of admitees in four years or less. Anyone interested in applying to the Honors College or seeking further information should contact the director, Dr. Edward P. Kardas at epkardas@saumag.edu or at 870 904-8897.

Full Enrollment in Honors College


 The SAU Honors Hall Residence Hall is FULL

The SAU Honors College passed another milestone recently, full enrollment. The incoming class of 60 students will fill all of the chairs in the Honors Hall classroom. Also, there are no rooms left in the hall. The Honors College has started a waiting list for 2011 enrollment. The college anticipates a small number places to open up before classes begin on August 24, 2011.

Students who have not yet been admitted should STILL complete their applications by sending two letters of recommendation and the two required essays. The waiting list will be first come, first serve.

The Honors College will also admit students in January, 2012. Students seeking admission then should also submit online applications, the two letters of recommendations, and the two required essays. NOTE: Admission to the SAU Honors College for current SAU students requires the complete application AND an SAU GPA of 3.5 or better.
