<p>Did I misunderstand? I thought you were visiting Oct 23…are you now not visiting until after the new year?</p>
<p>HC is firm about 28 minimum. But…</p>
<p>If she doesn’t get into honors (with ACT 28), she has the following options…</p>
<p>1) UA will let her join honors if she has a 3.3 GPA in college [Honors</a> College - Apply](<a href=“http://honors.cbhp.ua.edu/index.php?page=apply]Honors”>http://honors.cbhp.ua.edu/index.php?page=apply)</p>
<p>“Current UA students with a 3.3 GPA or transfer students with a 3.3 GPA will be accepted into the UHP upon submission of their applications. Students will be notified of their acceptance via email.” </p>
<p>You may want to ask, but I think you can apply to honors after just one semester of good grades. This may have changed, so ask if you are interested.</p>
<p>BTW…has she taken the SAT? Some kids do better with the SAT, and Honors only looks at Math and CR (1250 SAT minimum M+CR). That might be easier for her to do. I don’t know which is the last SAT that UA will accept for honors admissions. I know that the last SAT for scholarships is Nov, but honors probably would take a later score. Ask the Honors Office.</p>
<p>2) She can apply to the Blount Undergraduate Initiative [Blount</a> Undergraduate Initiative](<a href=“http://www.as.ua.edu/blount/]Blount”>http://www.as.ua.edu/blount/)</p>
