What are the Qualifications for Admission?
To be considered for the Honors Program, incoming
students must submit an Honors Program application, which
is in addition to the application for admission to the College.
Entering students need to meet certain criteria and requirements,
including an essay, a letter of recommendation, a B+
average and a composite SAT score of 1180 (math plus
reading and writing) or an ACT score of 24. Students who
are already enrolled in the program must maintain a 3.3
cumulative grade point average.
What Do the Best Colleges and Universities Have
in Common? Suffolk Students.
For years, Suffolk’s Honors Program has been preparing
students to pursue their academic and career ambitions.
Alumni of the program have an excellent record of transfer
success to respected four-year programs. Here is what
some of our graduates say:
Peter Dudek, Suffolk Alumnus “There is no doubt in my
mind that the Honors Program at Suffolk caused me to stop
dreaming about the stars and start reaching for them.”

Karen Sanchez, Suffolk Alumna “To be the first person
in my family to graduate from college and move on to an Ivy
League school is unreal. From Suffolk’s Honors program,
you can go anywhere.”
Columbia University transfer
Ryan Maloney, Suffolk Alumnus “Through Suffolk’s
Honors Program, I enhanced my analytical skills, honed my
writing abilities, and developed a keen interest in American
politics and history. I transferred to the University of Virginia
and earned my bachelor’s degree debt-free.”
