The Honors Fellowship is awarded to students who are fortunate enough to be accepted into the Honors Institute of Belmont Abbey College. Inspired by Pope John Paul II and great Catholic educators, the Honors Institute is a four-year educational program which provides a truly liberal education through close analysis, clear exposition, and friendly discussion of great texts (Christian, classical, and modern). Prominent in this endeavor are the works of great theologians, spiritual writers, philosophers, poets, scientists, and master scholars. In a unique series of courses, seminars, and guided independent study, students learn to listen to authors, teachers and each other with what The Rule of St. Benedict calls “the ear of your heart.”
