Honors Application Process?

Hi! I applied to FSU for the fall 2018 term and am wondering about the honors program? I know there is a separate application for the Presidential scholars; what I don’t know is how that application process works or if you must be invited to apply. I am also curious as to what is on the application – is it essays, or do they look at test scores/extracurriculars/etc?

I’m currently a honors student and just went through the process last year. Last year, when you completed the honors application, you were also completing the application for Presidential Scholars. However, look at the website for the deadline and make sure everything is completed before the deadline and you have a few days to check over material. You don’t have to be invited to apply, and the application is fairly long with a good amount of essays. According to the stats above, they look at everything, but don’t worry if your stats aren’t that high. There are plenty of people who are above and below the average that are apart of the honors program.

If you are selected for Presidential Scholars I know there’s a weekend in March/April that they invite candidates down for interviews and such. I’m not very familiar with the program, but best of luck!
