Alumni Distinguished Scholarship

<p>Just got my Honors College acceptance letter...</p>

<p>Now, does anyone know what the minimum requirements are to be invited to participate in the ADS competition?</p>

<p>If not, would former ADS competitors post their stats?</p>

<p>^^^there are no minimum stats, really. Most (if not all) honors college members are invited, as well as those in the academic scholars program etc. Essentially if you got into the honors college, expect an invitation in the mail within the next month and a half or so.</p>

<p>Son received his invitation to Alumni Distinguished Scholarship competition yesterday.</p>

<p>I was just invited to the ADS competition, although I never actually got a letter of acceptance into the Honors College. Should I call and ask? I remember reading something somewhere saying I was in, and my stats are well within range… :/</p>

<p>If you are in the top 5% of your graduating class and you have a 30+ ACT, you are in the honors college. There is no “range” really.</p>

<p>Yeah, I’m both of those things. Is there a GPA requirement? My friend whose mom works for the university said above a 3.8 UW, which I also have. But I never actually got a letter from them. Although I SWEAR I remember seeing somewhere that I got in…</p>

<p>Nope no GPA requirement for honors college. You are in the honors college. Not sure where you would’ve seen it. If you don’t get a letter by mid-January, call them. Mail gets lost, etc. Good luck :).</p>
