Baylor's Honor Program

Colleges and Universities A-Z Baylor University

<p>I am applying for just the basic honors program, and I just have several questions. Am I applying way too late now in March, will there still be room? I looked at the application process for this, and it appears that all I have to do is answer the questions that are asked in the app, do I not have to send in recommendations or have a phone interview? (once again just for the basic honors program) Also can I be in an honors program, and choose not to live in honors dorms?</p>

<p>And what kind of chance do you think I have based on my stats? or do they care A LOT more about the questions they ask you in the application?</p>

<p>SAT: 2130 (630 CR, 760 M, 740 W)
Rank: Top 16%
GPA: 5.05 out of a 5.0 weighted GPA scale</p>

<p>Thanks for your time!</p>

<p>oh oh, and for the third question, what if I haven’t had any real awards or honors? The only one I can think of is NHS… What would I write?</p>

<p>Your scores are pretty amazing. I’d say you have an amazing chance.</p>

4

<p>I’d say you’re in. I don’t recall even applying and I’m in it.</p>

<p>thanks for the replies! I turned in my app, and we’ll just see what happens I guess =)</p>

<p>my DD got an invitation to apply for the honors program this week. so it is not too late.</p>

<p>Yeah I just applied last week and already got my acceptance! I didn’t think they would give me back a response until April</p>

<p>You should also consider the other two Honors Programs at Baylor (u. scholars & BIC). They may very well be right in line with what you want to do in the future.
On a side-note, I’ve gone through the whole process regarding the honors college (I’ll be doing BIC & Honors) along with reserving a spot in the HRC-Honors Residential College (I plan on entering as a Freshman for Fall 2010 as well), so feel free to ask any questions / voice any concerns.</p>

<p>Good luck!</p>

<p>I am just graduating from BIC, and HIGHLY recommend it. If you have any questions about it, feel free to ask! Remember, you can do more than one honors program, if you want.</p>
