Honors College

I’m applying to OSU for the fall of 2017. Will applying as honors affect my chances of getting into non-honors? I think I would have a strong chance at getting into honors, but I don’t want to apply if it could risk my chances of getting in to the University in general. I think that I would do very well in honor but I do not find it to be a critical part of my college experience, so not being in it wouldn’t be heart breaking or anything. Any thoughts on applying to honors?

What they said at admissions presentations is that you apply to the university and they look at your application. If you get accepted, then your application is given to the honors program to review and they decide if you’re accepted to honors. Does that make sense?
