<p>I got accepted to Stony Brook, but I was wondering if there is a why to apply to the Honors College (sorta late I know). Also, wondering how difficult it is to transfer into the Honors College after attending SB for a year. Im in a serious college choosing dilemma and I would love to know if I could get into the HC,cause that would definetly tip the balance. Thanks in advance.</p>
<p>The Honors College rarely admits students who are not incoming freshmen, but they do occasionally make exceptions. It's too late right now to apply for this fall; the deadline was December 31, and that wouldn't be fair to those who have already applied and been admitted to the program.</p>
<p>From the HC site:</p>
<p>"A small number of first- and second-year students from Stony Brook or other colleges may be accepted for transfer into the Honors College. Minimum criteria include a GPA of 3.5 in a rigorous and well-rounded academic program. It is also important to have demonstrated vigor and leadership outside of the classroom. If you are interested in applying into the Honors College as a transfer, you must complete an application and return it by May 1st. A copy of the transfer application can be obtained by contacting the Honors College."</p>
<p>Hope this helps. Good luck.</p>
