<p>I was just recently accepted to UNCW and I got a letter today asking me to apply to the Honors Scholars Program. I am wondering if there is anyone out there who can tell me about it, what its like, is it worth it, your experiences, etc.
Also, I wanted to know how difficult it is to be admitted to the Honors Scholars Program. It is very selective/competitive?
Any info would be greatly appreciated :)</p>
<p>I applied to the honors program in decemver and just now got an emailing saying it’sbeing reviewed…doesn’t seem like their process is efficient</p>
<p>From what I’ve read you get several benefits
-You can take honors level classes
-select classes earlier than other students
-Nicer dorms in the Honors House
-Eligible for Merit Scholarship
-and a degree from the honors program</p>
<p>I sent my application to the honors program in late january and got my acceptance letter about 4 weeks later. As for how hard it is to get I had a 3.6 GPA and 1410 out of 1600 on the SAT.</p>
<p>ok good! thats so weird BDM92, our stats are like scarily close haha thanks for the info.
is there a due date for the app? am I too late in sending it in this week?</p>
<p>I think the deadline is April 15, the sooner the better. No you’re not too late as most people haven’t even heard back from regular admissions yet.</p>
<p>There’s alot of info here,

<p>I’ve been waiting for like 3 months now…</p>
<p>Has anyone heard yet if they were accepted into the UNCW honors program?</p>
<p>nope still waiting :(</p>
<p>My D applied to the Honors program, but she has not heard from UNCW. Has anyone heard yet? Are they still accepting students? When is there last acceptance to the Honors program?</p>
<p>My D is also still waiting to hear. I tried calling the Honors Office and they told me that D’s application is in a stack of applications waiting to be reviewed. We should hear in the next week. Apparently UNCW received a lot more honors applications this year.</p>
<p>D received replies from other colleges months ago, and with her decision due May 1, this is very frustrating. I’m beginning to think that UNCW doesn’t have its administrative act together and I wonder if this is indicative of the entire university. You would think that they would try to make a good first impression to convince students to come to UNCW.</p>
<p>We just got the Honors Scholars Program acceptance letter today for our son. They told us that they did receive a LOT of applications this year. I would suggest calling them again this week since May 1st is Saturday. Good luck!</p>
