The Honors Program at La Sierra is a unique general education pathway with interrelated courses that emphasize thoughtful discussions and engaging projects. Each Honors cohort numbers about 20 students maximum, creating the opportunity to form a close-knit group. Honors students develop skills and knowledge in the arts, sciences, and religion. They take part in research and community-involvement projects, and they go on an international trip for credit in the summer after their sophomore year.

Honors is a community of scholars, centered around the Honors House, South Hall—a place where students study, socialize, and live.
