Honors Program in College?

Graduate School
1

<p>Would it make a world of a difference when applying to grad school?</p>

<p>I currently attend Stony Brook University, and a Professor recommended me to the CS Honors Program. He told me I would be a likely candidate with a strong chance in being accepted, due to a high gpa in all of my CS courses, and a relatively high cumulative GPA.</p>

<p>I would be interested if it will make a big difference in my grad school application. I have a little bit over a year left, and it will be alot of work my senior year due to a two semester intensive honors research project.</p>

<p>So will it make a big difference on apps?</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>Being an honors student in itself won't do anything for apps. The fact that you're doing a senior thesis will help, but on the other hand they won't get to see that by the time you apply.</p>
