Engineering Honors

<p>Got into Rusch Honors at Viterbi Engineering. What extra does it entail, and does it actually signify anything? (I know honors looks good, but still)</p>

<p>Son also got in. I'm hoping someone knows more about how the program works in the day-to-day world.</p>

<p>Honors? Can anyone explain?? ><</p>

<p>i got in too...</p>

<p>i know you have to take an extra one credit class...and i think maybe you have a special advisor...thats all i really know...</p>

<p>Does the college decided whether you get into the Honors or did you guys apply?</p>

<p>You just get to take a trip during the last week of August somewhere (I believe Catalina Island or somewhere like that) and you have to take colloquium lecture courses.</p>

<p>Also, you do have to maintain a 3.5 GPA to remain in the program in following semesters. And I know MANY people who did not meet this.</p>

<p>I got in too</p>

<p>OmgItsCollege: no, i didn't apply at all. they just notified me today..and I've never even heard about such a program =P</p>

<p>how selective is this program, and does it have anything to do with the pres scholarship?</p>

<p>lol the signature on the letter actually looks real</p>

<p>It's quite selective. I wasn't selected.</p>
