Gonzaga University Honors Program Application

Thank you for your interest in the Gonzaga Honors Program!

Please fill out the application below in one session (you will not be able to save your progress and return later). The application is due by January 5th.

We strongly recommend crafting a portfolio specifically for the Gonzaga Honors Program, rather than submitting pre-existing presentations or assignments. You are welcome to include pre-existing work as a supplement to a Gonzaga-specific portfolio explaining your interest in Honors and what you would bring to the program. Be sure to upload or provide a link to your electronic portfolio in order to be considered for admission to the Honors Program.

Gonzaga Honors Portfolio

We know you are more than your GPA – we want to get to know you as a potential Honors Zag! Please submit an electronic portfolio (a slideshow, video link, Canva presentation, Word document, pdf, etc.) that serves as an introduction to what you will bring to the Gonzaga Honors community: your talents, passions, and aspirations for the future. We are looking for evidence of curiosity, creativity, commitment, uniqueness, effort, and resilience. We are excited to see your talent, read your writing, watch your robots, envision your business plan, accompany you in your service, dream with you about your future, or whatever you would like to share.

You will have the option of submitting a link to a video or audio file. If you choose to create a video or audio file, please limit it to five minutes. You may also upload a document or slideshow.

If you are sharing something you created for a different context (a class assignment, work of art, etc), please explain why you have chosen it as an introduction of yourself to the Honors Program.

Either submit a link to your audio or video file in the first box OR submit your PDF, PowerPoint, Word document, or JPEG file in the second box below. You are not required to fill out both.

1. Please upload your video, audio clip, etc. to YouTube, Vimeo, or another website of your choice and give us the link:
