tudents in the tutorial program have easy access to all the faculty in the Department of Classics and World Religions, which comprises philologists specializing in the Greek and Latin languages and texts, and archaeologists who interpret the Classical world through the study of the material culture. Each student will work with a personal advisor/tutor from our faculty to craft the individual program and to monitor the student's progress. The program develops familiarity with the different aspects of the Classical world, effective research and writing skills, and independent thinking. Students are exempt from university general education requirements. Students must maintain a GPA of 3.5 or higher in courses required for the program and the Honors Tutorial College.

The qualities of research, critical thinking, synthesis and effective writing developed in our program are applicable to many careers besides graduate programs in Classics. Graduates from our Classics HTC program have gone on to graduate programs in Classical languages and archaeology, theology, rhetoric, education and law school. Several have served in Teach for America before starting graduate school.
