Fourteen undergraduate students were selected in the most recent round of admissions to the Take Five Scholars program. They join\u00a034 students\u00a0<\/a>who were admitted into the program earlier this year. Altogether, 65 students will begin Take Five programs this fall.<\/p>\n

Take Five, unique to the University of Rochester, provides a tuition-free additional year of academic study to selected undergraduate students in Arts, Sciences & Engineering and the Eastman School of Music. To be considered, a student must develop a two-semester program of related courses which, taken together, address an overarching question or explore a topic from the perspective of multiple disciplines. The Take Five Scholars program rewards intellectual curiosity; course programs must be outside a student\u2019s major, and Take Five courses cannot be counted toward an additional major, minor, or certificate.<\/p>\n

Since the program was initiated in 1986, more than 1,100 students have been named Take Five Scholars.\u00a0Here are the newest scholars, along with the title of their program of courses:<\/p>\n
