<p>I second ClassicRockerDad's comment. According to my school, "[students who] get into College Park's Honors have 4.3+ WGPAs, have taken AP/IB Classes and have a median SAT score of 1410". The statement can be verified by UMD too!</p>

University Honors has 2 full time advisors dedicated to helping Honors students with academic advising, planning, scheduling, and support. They are terrific and extremely personable – great to talk to, helpful when making academic decisions, and amazing at troubleshooting any problems that may arise regarding arranging class schedules.

You will work hard in Honors, but within a small class and with lots of attention from the professor. You will analyze ideas and discuss diverse perspectives with the faculty, not memorize factoids to be thrown back on a test. Busy work is prohibited. Honors Seminars fulfill many of the CORE (general education) courses required for all students at the University of Maryland.
