My daughter has been accepted at both.
Anybody with experience or advice regarding either or both of these programs?
My daughter is enrolled in the Pace Honors Program this summer at Ole Miss. We also are looking for some advice and/or info on the program.
Wondering what you decided between the programs?
She is at Ole Miss and loving it!
They had the day off today and they traveled to Memphis for a baseball game and tomorrow is the big 4th of July BBQ and fireworks show.
We are very glad she is there and has made many new friends.
The classes seem good so far too B-)
Oh, sorry.
I realize now that you were asking OP who was choosing between programs.
Just wanted to put in a good word for the Ole Miss Summer College!
I read this right after my daughter texted me from the Memphis baseball game! She, too, is having a great time there–loves her classes and has made some good friends already. I think the program strikes a nice balance between giving kids a good taste of college-like independence while also realizing they’re still high school students and making sure they have appropriate rules and boundaries. It also has to be about the least expensive of any summer programs out there (it’s a free ride for some students, based on grades/test scores.) About the only real issue my daughter has had was getting the classes she wanted–the program she originally signed up was canceled for lack of enrollment, and her first choice elective clashed with her new main course so she had to choose a different elective. As it turns out, though, she really likes both, so it’s fine. It did appear to be a fairly common issue, however.
