<p>Do i have to fill out the honors essay ans trustees essay?</p>
<p>Not unless you are applying for the honors program or the trustees scholarship. And the deadline for the Trustee’s scholarship was December 1, so there’s really no point in doing it now. My son applied for the Trustee’s scholarship, but not the honors program so I don’t know if that one has its own deadline.</p>
<p>@awesomekidsmom I dont want to apply for either. But there is a red asterisk next to those prompts on the common app., so I assumed they were required. </p>
<p>Huh! I’ll try to look at my son’s common app and get back to you. He definitely only did the “why BU” and the trustee essay and the website shows his app as complete.</p>
<p>Okay - I just looked. It seems that there are a couple of questions under the “academics” section of the “questions” of the common app that ask if you are applying to the honors college or for the trustee scholarship. If you answer Yes to them, then the essays are required, and will have a red asterisk. If you answer no, the essay prompts will either not show up, or they will not have a red asterisk. Go back and look at that section. I hope this helps! Good luck!</p>
<p>@awesomekidsmom Just fixed it! Thank you!!!</p>
