Welcome to the Lock Haven University
Global Honors Program!

If you want to make the most of your university experience while also making life-long friends and having a great time, then the LHU Global Honors Program may be just the program for you.

Our mission is to provide students with an enhanced educational experience. What this means is that our program offers a wide range of special opportunities designed to help you to succeed as a developing scholar, as a leader and as a global citizen.

Small, discussion-oriented classes taught by outstanding professors, the opportunity to work one on one with professors on projects of your own design, as well as the chance to participate in regional and national honors conferences are just some of the ways our students challenge themselves to grow personally and academically. In addition, our co-curricular program of discussion groups, activity groups, speakers, public issues forums, and service-learning opportunities, provides great opportunities for making friends and developing leadership experience. Honors students also have use of the Honors House, a “home-away-from-home” on campus – complete with a common room, activity rooms, and a computer lab. Finally, all honors students are automatically considered each year for merit-based scholarships reserved just for students in this program.

The LHU Global Honors Program is open to students from every major. If you would like to make the most of your time at Lock Haven University, be sure to apply for admission. You will work hard, play hard, and make wonderful friends along the way. Like so many of our graduates, you too will look back and realize what a great choice you made when you decided to apply for this unique opportunity.

I look forward to hearing from you soon!
