Honors College Decisions

<p>Starting a separate thread for Honors College decisions. Please post here when you hear from C of C as many seem to be anxiously awaiting the Honors College envelope.</p>

<p>Yeah, my DD received the Honors envelope Saturday and the regular envelope today. Nothing about Aiken interviews though.</p>

<p>Are these responses to Honors College applications or college based invitations?</p>

<p>I believe the answer to your question is both. A handful have posted updates about receiving both the Honors College notice and the regular college acceptance as well.</p>

<p>My S received the general acceptance package on the 24th but we’re still waiting to hear from Honors. Hopefully the letter arrives today.</p>

<p>FYI: D2’s invitation to interview for the Aiken Fellows was included in her Honors college packet.</p>

<p>D was accepted to Honors at Colorado State, Baylor, Oklahoma State, Auburn and is interviewing for Honors @TCU in Feb. :)</p>

<p>Congrats RobD, good luck to your daughter. Is she very interested in CofC? My DD still waiting to hear about the Int’l Scholars program. I believe she should hear about Jan 10. Previously they had interviews on the same weekend as Aiken Fellows, but now the web site says there will be “another activity.” (??? who knows)</p>

<p>^^^Yup! Very. She hasn’t visited campus during the school year, and she’s looking forward to seeing what it’s “really” like vs. our summer visit.</p>

<p>Cool. We visited in October (and the previous Nov.) and it was bustling and vibrant and not hot :slight_smile: She will love it. </p>

<p>Not sure about wintertime, but in the fall, there is a farmer’s market at a park nearby with fresh veggies and arts and crafts, every Saturday morning. So many fun things to do in Charleston. My D doesn’t understand why everybody from her school isn’t applying!</p>

<p>Also, don’t miss the gourmet lunch spot called Caviar and Bananas…real close to Admissions. Have a great time!</p>

<p>D was accepted to Honors College, but no invitation to interview for Aiken Fellows. Does anyone know when we will hear about the Honors College portion of Accepted Students weekend? The website still has last year’s date up and it appears that D will need to take a Friday off from school.</p>

<p>I had not paid much attention to it as I don’t think my daughter is planning to attend, but I wanted to point out to you that there is a CofC Parent Listserv you can subscribe to via the CofC website. It is very active and has given me a lot of info already. Someone on there may know the answer to this question. Also, they have a handful of College staff that also read the messages and sometimes chime in with helpful answers.</p>

<p>Thank you MommaMafia! I also saw there was a Parent Blog that will send you emails when there are new postings :)</p>

<p>Thank you mommaMafia and RobD. I will definitely check these out!</p>
