You’ll join scholars from every major for a rich, cross-disciplinary experience that will challenge and inspire your learning. Adding the Pietas Program requires no extra credits, so you can complete your degree within a typical timeframe. Additionally, students in the Pietas Honors Program receive all the textbooks for their four Honors courses for free.
