<p>Does anyone know about the honors program here? The website says you are invited to join if you have a 3.9+ (FSU calculated GPA) and a 1300+ SAT (CR + M). Is the Honors dorm nicer than the other dorms? Are there any other perks to being a member of the honor's community?</p>
<p>honors college students get free donuts every Friday</p>
<p>how do they calculate your GPA? those are very objective statistics. a 3.9 could be really high or really low, depending on your school.</p>
<p>I have a 3.7 and (the equivalent of) a 1450...?</p>
<p>can you transfer in after you're accepted?</p>
<p>I am not sure about the transfer issue. Check the website: <a href="http://www.honors.fsu.edu%5B/url%5D">www.honors.fsu.edu</a>. I believe that if you have a 3.8 after 12 credits you can transfer in. As for the GPA, you need to contact the admissions office and ask. I had heard that all Florida schools recalculate your GPA using only academic classes. They give .5 point for honors and 1 point extra for AP (no pluses or minuses count). So, a B in an AP class is worth 4.0, an A- in an honors class is 4.5, a B+ in a regular class is a 3.0, etc...</p>
