Rowan Honors program..

We weren’t able to attend. How was it? Was there any new information that wasn’t already on the website provided? Also curious, did they mention how many students were accepted to Honors?

It was nice. Basically same info as on the website, but many students currently in the program were there to answer questions, which was helpful (along with reps from financial aid, study abroad, etc). I believe they said they expect 120-140 students in Freshman class will be in the honors program, 500-ish overall. They also showed the honors housing, which was good.

@QueenJackie, glad you were able to attend. My daughters boyfriend was accepted to Honors…thrilled for him. Did they say which building will house the Freshman honor students next year? :slight_smile:

@tpcrd66 they said Freshman honors is housed in 2 pods in Holly Pointe, and then after that they go to Whitney (?) We saw Holly Pointe & it looked more like a Star Trek movie set than a dorm (weird, but cool!). Congrats to DD’s BF!

Thanks @QueenJackie! I was wondering if they would be using HP for honors freshman…my son was in Evergreen or Mullica (I forget)…he LOVES Whitney. Living there is quite a perk…nicer than his room at home!! :wink:

Holly Pointe is more expensive than other housing options. Does being is honors make it more affordable?

@MACmiracle No, you pay the same as everyone else whose kids lives there. You do not HAVE to live their if you are in honors.
