<p>Can I ask when you were accepted into the Honors Program and how you found out? Some of us are anxiously awaiting news regarding this.</p>
<p>@NaperMom My son just got accepted into Honors Program. A thin letter in the mail. We’re on the west coast. Good luck to everyone! </p>
<p>I was accepted into the Global Scholars Honors program in Gatton with an e-mail a little over a week ago. That makes Kentucky a real possibility, but still with at least 5 or so schools solidly above it.</p>
