Scholars Program Requirements*

The Scholars Program aims to provide students with an enhanced liberal arts education, and thus requires them to engage in coursework and activities beyond those of the major and of the standard general education program. Review the “Program Requirements” page and write a paragraph (250-300 words) explaining what you believe completing these requirements might contribute to your education and experience at Benedictine University

Application Essay*

Developing students’ global awareness is a particular focus of the Scholars Program. To demonstrate your current global awareness, write an essay (600-1000 words) in which you identify a global issue/problem and discuss both what has been done to address it on a global level and how it impacts your community at a local level. Be specific and concrete.
