College Scholars Program
The UC Santa Cruz College Scholars Program offers a congenial and stimulating academic home for a select group of well-prepared students at UC Santa Cruz. College Scholars can expect to challenge themselves academically, find other students who are similarly motivated, and explore undergraduate research. This enriched program of study includes special courses, seminars, colloquia, and other events during each quarter of the academic year. College Scholars participate in demanding, small-scale, and research-oriented courses that catalyze creative thinking and offer a springboard to other undergraduate research opportunities.
Admission to the Fall Start cohort of the College Scholars Program is by invitation. A select group of University of California, Santa Cruz, applicants offered admission to the university will be invited to join the program, based on their record of academic achievement.
