You can apply to join the Honors Program at the University of Alaska Fairbanks. Admission requirements for the Program vary by class standing. Check to see if you qualify:
  • Incoming freshmen need a high school GPA of no less than 3.6 and either a minimum composite ACT score of 29 or a minimum combined math/critical reading/writing SAT score of 1875, with emphasis placed on high scores in English and mathematics.
  • First-semester college sophmores need a university GPA of 3.5 or higher. Transfer students are eligible for admission under same standards.
  • Juniors and seniors are eligible to apply for the Honors Thesis Scholar option, and also need a university GPA of 3.5 or higher.
  • Conditional acceptance is also possible. Each year a number of highly motivated students, both entering and continuing, who do not meet acceptance criteria are admitted on a probationary basis by the Honors Council. If you are interested in being a member of UAF's Honors Program and believe that your admission will be beneficial to both you and the program, you are encouraged to apply.


Here is the Application for incoming UAF freshmen.
NOTE: Applying to the Honors Program is a separate process from applying for admission to UAF.
