The Lycoming College Scholar Program is a special program designed to meet the needs and aspirations of highly motivated students of superior intellectual ability. Lycoming scholars satisfy the College’s distribution requirements with more challenging courses than students not in the Scholar Program are required to complete. (Substitutions to the Scholar Distribution Requirements can be made only by successful application to the Scholar’s Council.) Lycoming Scholars also participate in special interdisciplinary seminars and in an independent study culminating in a senior presentation.
