About Us—The Honors Program aims:

  • To attract a greater number of academically outstanding students to Calvin College and enhance the image of Calvin as a place of academic distinction.
  • To provide a curriculum in which excellent students can develop their academic talents to the fullest.
  • To develop a sense of community among honors students and faculty.
  • To achieve through a specialized program the same purposes as the general curriculum: namely, to engage in vigorous liberal arts education that promotes lifelong Christian service and to produce substantial scholarship and art in the context of a caring and diverse educational community.

(Adopted by the Faculty - April 20, 1993)
