<p>Copied from a thread on the main discussion page:</p>
<p>Just got my decision back from the SHC, didn't get in sadly. Not getting in really raises my interest in the Leonhard program, which I applied too because a possible $5500/year was worth the essay, I didn't really look that far into the program. Since I really want to do research wherever I go and I really like the environment at PSU other than possibly getting lost in the main program more info would really help! </p>
<p>However, I cannot seem to find any information about the Leonhard center outside of its own web page! soooo</p>
<p>How hard is it to get in? I had a 2320 SAT and my essay was one of my stronger ones although its not fantastic. Also when do we find out about the program?</p>
<p>What does the program really do? It lists a ton of lofty goals on the website but what does it really do? </p>
<p>How does it compare to honors at colleges like OSU or Pitt? </p>
