<p>I didn't apply to the Honors Program, unfortunately. I regret it.</p>
<p>Thanks for all the help.</p>
<p>I would check with admissions to see if you could apply now before you start. I suspect not but the worst they could tell you is “no”. I have never heard of anyone being able to do this but that does not mean it has never happened.</p>
<p>I do know that once a student starts at UD they can subsequently apply to the Honors Program for admission. The student would need to take 2 honors program courses, get at least a 3.0 in them, get recommendations from the professors, and then complete a formal application. In order to take honors courses a student needs to have at least a GPA of 3.0 and get permission from the Honors Program to take the courses (if space is available-preference is given to Honors Program students). You would need to complete one semester at UD, then take 2 honors courses the 2nd semester, and then apply in your sophomore year. Check out the Honors Proram website for more info about this.</p>
<p>Just FYI a student can graduate from UD with various honors designations (cum laude, magna cum laude, summa cum laude) without being in the Honors Program (This is a separate designation). You would need to have an overall GPA in the top 13% in your UD college in order to obtain one of these honors designations. Hope this info is helpful. Best wishes to you at UD.</p>
<p>I did. They just told me no.</p>
<p>Thank you, though. Your information was helpful.</p>
