<p>Hey! So today in the mail I got a letter and brochure talking about the honor's college and how I would fit in it. Is that my invitation to be in it? But the letter was dated on December 16. Also, I still haven't gotten a formal acceptance letter in the mail, but online it said that I have been accepted. I am so confused!</p>
<p>It sounds like you got accepted into the honors college, but that your formal letter of acceptance hasn’t made it in the mail yet for some reason (mine took about 2 weeks after the online acceptance). </p>
<p>Congrats! :)</p>
<p>Not to get you down, but I don’t think that brochure is an invitation. I also got those same brochures, and they do send them to qualified students, but it doesn’t mean you’re in. They will let you know officially if you were accepted into the honors college when you receive your decision letter. With my decision letter, they offered and admission and said I was accepted into the honors program. But since they sent you a brochure they are probably considering you for the program.</p>
<p>@Lizz2152, I don’t know, I never got the formal acceptance letter for Honors, but my acceptance letter included the honors scholarship and my stats in OASIS show that one of the attributes on my account is “HONR”. I think their honors is just a flat requirements program, if you meet the requirements, you’re in. I never got a letter just from their honors program, though I have a 4.0 unweighted GPA and 1560 Math/Reading combined on the SAT.</p>
<p>Okay so I emailed the guy in charge of the honors college, and I didn’t get in because my GPA isn’t high enough. It doesn’t even matter that I got a 31 ACT with a 34 on the English part. But whatever, now I am definitely not going here.</p>
<p>don’t be mad… it’s not JUST about test scores you know, it’s also about what you do with your abilities… such as getting good grades ;)</p>
<p>anyway you can also get into the honors college after you get 45 credit hours completed. so if you don’t get in as a freshman, you can still add in later!! :)</p>
<p>Looks like I will be weighing UF and USF honors, but really I am trending much more towards UF. USF just isn’t the same caliper school.</p>
<p>Calibrate your caliper for measuring the schools’ calibers!</p>
