Honors Program

<p>If you have over a 4.0 Weighted GPA for UF and you have a the SAT requirement (1400 i think) then do you automatically get Honors? Or is there some sort of process that goes into that?</p>

<p>Why do you have to post such a stupid reply?
If you have anything meaningful to say, then say it. If not, then don't waste your time or any of ours.</p>

<p>And I'm not sure about the Honors elegibility/process. Try searching the honors website for info.</p>

<p>k anybody that can answer my question and not gripe about it?</p>

<p>that would be much appreciated :)</p>

<p>Oh sorry. I didn't realize that the "bumpitybump" came from the same person as the original poster. I'm really sorry :) I just thought it was some idiot trying to be stupid. Sorry again.</p>

<p>I am 90% sure that you are automatically admitted. I believe that was the case last year. However, I'm not sure if it changed over the summer.</p>

<p>Now that they consider the writing portion of the SAT, I believe you receive an invitation if your SAT has a combined score of 2070.</p>

<p>to sbrady1028: no biggie lol.</p>

<p>to admiralllama and vincanity1: thanks :)</p>

<p>Another quick question: </p>

<p>if so many people fill that requirement how many honors students are there every incoming freshman class?</p>

<p>and what are the perks to being honors? besides all the "you have honors on your transcript" stuff, lol </p>

<p>Thanks in advance guys.</p>

<p>One major perk is you get to register first (at least that's how it used to be)</p>

<p>^^
You only get priority registration for honors courses, not for the rest of your schedule ... which is a bummer. <g> You also get access to live in Hume, honors housing, if you so desire. And ... hmmm... not sure about the rest of it. I know that they're currently searching for a new honors director so I don't know if there might be any changes when he/she comes on board. Frankly, if it weren't for Hume I'm not sure if we'd even consider honors (and even then I'm not sure it's worth it), I've not heard a lot of positive feedback from kids from our area we know who've been it. So, I'd love to hear some positive feedback from anyone who's currently in honors. </g></p>

<p>zebes, who's d is eligible for honors assuming she's admitted</p>

<p>If by any chance you are a National Merit Scholar, I am under the impression you get priority registration for all classes throughout the 4 years (except for 1st semester courses which are selected at Preview). FYI - for a UF National Merit Scholarship, the deadline to indicate UF as a first choice is April 1st. I was really surprised by that little tidbit because many other schools give you more time.</p>

<p>thanks zebes, sunset31.</p>

<p>sounds like the honors program isn't so great afterall.</p>
