Indiana University Wells Scholars Program

The Wells Scholars Program offers:

• Close interaction with faculty
• Academic and career mentoring
• International experience and engagement
• Frequent extracurricular activities, often with distinguished visitors
• Interdisciplinary Wells freshman seminars that address fundamental issues and are taught by outstanding faculty
• Support for a summer internship, research or volunteer project, creative activity, or other enriching experience
• Opportunities for involvement in community service with fellow Scholars
• A combination of the best features of a large research university and a small liberal arts college

Wells Scholars may major in any field offered at IU. Each Scholar works with a Hutton Honors College advisor to design a course of study that takes into consideration the student’s interests, goals, and strengths.

Freshman Scholars enroll in a Wells freshman seminar in fall and in spring. During the year, Scholars develop intellectual and personal bonds with their classmates while they read major works and discuss challenging ideas.
