University Scholars are among the top academically talented students in each incoming class. As first-year students, they live together in the Roosevelt Community, fostering a supportive and connected living-learning environment that promotes academic and personal growth.

The program spans all four years and offers exclusive opportunities such as symposia, special events, student-led organizations, and outreach activities, enriching the undergraduate experience beyond the classroom. One standout benefit for Scholars is priority course registration, allowing for greater flexibility in course selection and access to sought-after classes.

University Scholars are regularly recognized as leaders and active contributors within the Stony Brook community and beyond. Through their dedication to academic excellence, leadership roles, and service, they leave a lasting impact on campus and in their broader communities.
