Hi all, I’ve already received my acceptance letter from Clemson University (I got it early November). at that point, I completed and submitted my Calhoun honors application, although it was delayed a bit because my counselor didn’t send her letter of recommendation right away. But now it’s all been in for well over a month (I believe the deadline was early December, it was all in before then). I’m very anxious to hear back, I was wondering has anyone else heard back from Calhoun?
Letters go out mid Feb.
We visited Calhoun honor college yesterday. People were so nice and the head of the program said it would
definitely be Feb 12 or Feb 15 before decisions would come out. My D is even more excited about CHC than before!
Thx. @CTigerMom . I hope the 12th because we’ll be out of town next weekend.
This should be the week for Calhoun notifications . Harder and harder to wait.
Will you get an email if you get into Calhoun honors or will they tweet it - wasn’t that part of the application?
Looks like they send an email to check application status on CHC application site based on last year’s notification.
My daughter was accepted to Calhoun Honors College! Now she needs to make her choice.
Congrats @CTigerMom . My son was accepted too. Now comes the hard part.
Congrats to all receiving invites to CHC!!! A great honor! We received consolation letter today, so of course disappointed. Still pleased to be accepted to Clemson and COE. Been accepted to Honors at Auburn, UT-Knoxville, Texas A&M, and Miss State U. Good luck to all on additional scholarships to be announced in coming weeks.
@WeSayWarEagle Sorry you did not get in, but it sounds like you have some great opportunities elsewhere.
Good luck!
My d. accepted to Calhoun Honors college - she received an email yesterday!
My d. got into the nursing program and calhoun honors college and she is debating between two schools. What program is your d contemplating at Clem?
D hasn’t received her admission to Clemson, but she did get the email from Calhoun today. She got in! Such a fantastic program, I fell in love with them during our campus visit.
My son got accepted yesterday! He wanted to live in Core so we are thrilled for him. He is OOS so will be looking for a roommate. Any other suggestions to connect with other CHC kids besides ■■■■■■■■.com and Clemson 2020 Facebook page?
What is Core?
@Cintimom1 Core is the new Honors dorms complex that is supposed to be open by the Summer 2016. It will also have offices, honors classrooms as well as a huge new dining hall and retail space. It’s right by Death Valley. You can look it up on Clemson’s website . There’s a good description and live pictures of the construction .
@carolinamom2boys - I am reading your name description and thinking you are in state - what is the weather like there year long -
@Cintimom1 I live about 45 minutes from Clemson. It is located in the upstate near the Georgia and NC border, more by the "
Mountains" We do have occasional snow 2-3 times a year with usually less than 6 inches . We have 4 seasons with nice Spring and Falls. Summer can have highs in the 90s, but are usually less humid than the coast. We do get rain, but usually not for extended periods of time. Temps in the winter do get below freezing at night , but not usually that far below freezing . I’m from Maryland originally, and I don’t find the weather hugely different except the amount of snow and the extremes in temps between summer and winter. I hope that helps. Let me know if you have any more questions .
So Clemson gets snow - if you go to school there - need winter boots, winter coat?
