University Scholars and Global Scholars
The university offers two parallel programs for the university's best sophomores. Students who complete their first year at KU with at least a 3.5 GPA are invited to apply for the University Scholars and/or the Global Scholars Programs. Students get the chance to meet some of their brightest peers from across campus, take a seminar from one of the university's distinguished faculty members, are paired with faculty mentors, and receive small stipends.
Applications are due in September of each year. See each program for specific details.
