Hi! I just got the Presidential Scholarship for $18,000 a year to UVM. I am excited about this, though UVM is not necessarily one of my top choices. I was wondering if this scholarship would guarantee admission to the honors college there?? Or alternatively, would a recipient of this scholarship be very likely to get into the honors college?
Not guaranteed.
Likely, though?
I think it depends on the college. Prez scholarship does not equal honors invite.
Do you know when they do the Honors College invitations?
I spoke with a representative from the admissions office last week. She said Honors College invites would begin January 9 (not sure if by mail, email, or they would just show up on the portal). On the UVM Admissions Facebook page, they mentioned that invites would begin January 10. Not sure which date is correct, but at least it’s not too long of a wait.
I just received the Presidential Scholarship too. I was wondering the same thing about the Honors College.
