Founded in 1996, Torrey Honors is a world-class great books program designed to replace undergraduate core curriculum courses with classical learning and discussion. Early on, the program quickly rose to prominence as an innovative leader in liberal arts education among Christian universities, and over time it has been recognized by numerous Christian scholars and leaders as the nations premier honors program.

In recent years, Torrey Honors has experienced steady growth in the number of enrolled students, with aspirations to grow further. It currently has more than 400 students and 16 professors dedicated entirely to teaching in Torrey. The new college designation is more consistent with naming standards in American higher education for honors programs of Torreys size and breadth.

Torrey Honors College will continue to be housed under the School of Humanities and Social Sciences. For more information about Torrey Honors College, visit biola.edu/torrey.
