The Baruch Scholars Program provides full tuition over four years to incoming freshmen. Baruch Scholars have access to academic, research, and career opportunities in the New York region, in addition to opportunities to study abroad.
To graduate with honors through the program, Baruch Scholars must take between 12 to 18 credit hours per semester and notify advisors before adding or dropping courses. In addition, they are required to hold a 3.5 grade point average at graduation and complete 10 honors courses, at a minimum. Further, these scholars must attend cultural events each semester and complete 15 hours of community service annually. They are also encouraged to study abroad, though it isn’t required.
