Well, the site says -

Presidential Honors Scholars Program
The College of Arts and Science offers scholarships to outstanding freshmen (approximately the top five percent of the entering class) who have demonstrated superior academic achievement and outstanding records of leadership and service to their school and community. Presidential Honors Scholars participate in Scholars Seminars, meet regularly for lectures and discussions, and engage in a wide variety of co-curricular activities, including the Scholars Lecture Series, cultural events in new York City, social events, and community service projects. Scholars are also expected to complete the honors track in their major. During the January intersession, freshman and sophomore scholars participate in a study abroad trip. During their junior or senior year, scholars are expected to study abroad for an entire term.
