Participation in The Clarkson School and Honors Program

Students who are accepted as participants in both The Clarkson School and the Clarkson University Honors Program represent an exceptional group of high-achieving scholars. 

These “dualies” begin their academic journey immersed in a rigorous early college environment while simultaneously benefiting from the enriched curriculum, research opportunities, and close faculty mentorship offered through the Honors Program. 

By balancing the accelerated structure of The Clarkson School with the intellectual depth and community engagement of Honors, "dualies" demonstrate remarkable maturity, curiosity, and drive. Their experience fosters advanced critical thinking skills, leadership development, and meaningful collaboration, positioning them for continued academic excellence and impactful contributions both on campus and beyond.  

Students who are not selected to apply for the Honors Program in the fall semester of The Clarkson School year can apply for the Fast Track option for the spring semester.
