<p>What's the difference? Does one give merit money or something?</p>

<p>Both scholars students and honors students recieve scholarships, although those students admitted into honors generally have higher stats and therefore get more money. The cream of the crop honors students are invited into one of two special programs (or both, but this is more rare) depending on your responses to the questions in the "finding your niche" section of the application (Honors Humanities or Gemstone). You can find more about those programs by going to "Honors Links" on the honors website.</p>
<p>Thanks, that helped a lot :)</p>
