Each year since 1991, a select group of young men and women of outstanding talent and character have come to Boston College to embark on an integrated honors educational experience designed to embody the best of the university and its Jesuit heritage of educational excellence in service to society - the Boston College Presidential Scholars Program.
The Presidential Scholars Program works in tandem with the University's honors curricula, challenging Scholars over four years through summer programs focusing on community service, international experience and professional internships. During the academic year, Scholars interact with eminent guests through a biweekly Evening Speakers series, hone their leadership skills through a series of biweekly workshops, and take advantage of a variety of other enrichment opportunities, all intended to nurture their development into the nation's future leaders. Presidential Scholars receive full tuition scholarships and all PSP-sponsored summer programs are fully funded.
