<p>I was just sent an e-mail invitation to apply to the Advanced Honors Program. I had previously thought that only entering freshmen would be considered if their scores in high school were high enough. But nevertheless, I was just sent this invitation to apply.</p>
<p>1.) Is it worth it? What are some notable benefits and drawbacks?
2.) Is it only for a semester or throughout all four years?
3.) One requirement is to write an Honors thesis or develop a project. Is this only during senior year?
4.) Are there any scholarships that come with it?</p>
<p>1) Worth it? Definitely. If you live in NY state, you’ll be essentially paying almost nothing to attend college. You receive scholarships. As for other benefits, I’m sure there are many; I believe honors college students get priority when choosing classes, but don’t quote me on this.
2) Four years
3) You’re probably better off re-reading the e-mail they sent you or simply contact them than asking the forums.
4) Absolutely. Just check out the honors college here: [University</a> Honors College](<a href=“http://honors.buffalo.edu/]University”>http://honors.buffalo.edu/)</p>
