IBE Honors Application

IBE Honors Program students will be chosen based on academic potential (as indicated by their university application) and responses to IBE application essay questions. The objective of the essay questions is to determine whether students have an understanding of the goals and objectives of the IBE program and whether students can demonstrate an ability and willingness to work with others from a variety of backgrounds in a constructive and professional manner.
