Renée Crown University Honors Program

The Renée Crown University Honors Program provides an enriching educational experience for many of the University’s most accomplished students. Honors students seek academic challenge and are prepared to invest the extra effort required to meet their personal and professional goals.

Syracuse University has had an Honors Program since 1963. In 2002, a gift from the family of Trustee Emerita Renée Crown enabled an ambitious revision of the program to enhance the Honors experience for students from across the University's schools and colleges. The Honors Program engages students in enriching academic experiences, in and outside of the classroom, a campus community that pushes them to achieve their goals and supports them with funding that encourages their ability to do more.

Your contribution to the Honors Program Fund allows the Renée Crown University Honors Program to continue serving our high achieving students in their professional development, research and study abroad goals through funding that goes directly to the student, while also providing a community and academic space for the Honors students to thrive on campus.
