The William Paterson University of New Jersey University Honors College Scholarships are awarded on a first-come, first-served basis to applicants who meet the Honors College admissions criteria and who have been admitted to the University, beginning in October of the applicant's senior year in high school. Students must have an average unweighted high school GPA of 3.60 (middle 50 percent range of 3.47 to 3.82). Most accepted students have taken multiple honors, dual-enrollment college, Advanced Placement, and International Baccalaureate-level courses in their high school careers. Honors College admission is for the Fall semester only. The priority application deadline for this scholarship was March 1, although applications will continue to be reviewed until the program is full. Students may visit the scholarship's website or contact the Office of Financial Aid for more information.
