• Professors nominate motivated and engaged freshmen students for the program after having them in classes for a semester. Or students may self-nominate by Feb. 1 of their freshman year.

• Students begin taking honors courses the first semester of their sophomore year after they have fully adapted to college life.

• For their honors curriculum, students may choose from a "traditional" track, including humanities and interdisciplinary courses, plus limited math and science options, a biology track or a chemistry track.

• Every student will do a research thesis or project as a capstone for his/her field of study and will present that research at Wingate's undergraduate research symposium.

• Students will be encouraged to apply for a summer research grant, to be mentored by a professor and/or to present their research at discipline-specific regional or national conferences.
