Admission into the cas honors program during second semester

<p>I heard that if you are not invited into the honors program, you can request admission after the first semester. What criteria would I need to fulfill in order to be considered after first semester? </p>

<p>Also can anyone tell me exactly what we do at orientation each day. Do we have to fill out the schedule with someone or can we do it by ourselves?</p>

<p>If you want to join the honors program, my advice would actually be <em>not</em> to wait until second semester to start the process. Get in touch with Professor Timothy Duket, who I believe is still in charge of freshman year in the program. You should be able to obtain his contact info on the website. Ask to meet with him and then explain why you want to be in the program in your meeting. He will tell you what to do next. Usually, you need a few recommendations, sometimes a letter from an honors faculty member, and a personal statement. They would likely make admission in your second semester conditional on good performance in your first. When I say not to wait, I mean I would even suggest emailing him over the summer, as soon as possible.</p>
