@MHC872018 yes, it appears that they would like to see improvement with regards to your 1st semester grades. Aim high this semester, and your chances should be strong. Good luck!
@Jake12345 around three weeks after I received my acceptance notification, I got an invitation to the Honors College. I am an in-state student, so included with the invitation was a $5000 per year merit scholarship (Honors College STATE scholarship) with some research perks as well. I believe an ACT of 33+, SAT of 1500+, or NMSF status are requisites. Good luck!
For those waiting to hear about scholarships, heres a link for info about OOS scholarships…
