Each year, the Gregorian Fellows Leadership Program provides 25 exceptionally motivated students with unique educational and leadership opportunities intended to advance the Catholic culture on campus, in America, and in the world.
Eligibility Requirements
The Gregorian Fellows invite the following groups of admitted students to apply:
- STANDARD: Students who demonstrate a minimum high school GPA of a 3.2 and minimum 27 ACT, 1260 SAT, or 87 CLT.
- TEST-OPTIONAL: Test-optional applicants who submit a high school transcript showing a cumulative GPA of 3.2 or higher.

- What is the best leadership advice someone gave you to improve your own leadership abilities?
- What role do you typically play on any team? For example:
- “I’m typically the one that comes up with the ideas”
- “I am the one who makes sure the task gets completed”
- “I am the one who typically recruits the other volunteers”
- If you were to choose a leader from a film or book who you would want to emulate as a leader who would it be and why?
* please prepare one video that includes all three questions.
