University of Alabama - Blount Initiative

<p>My daughter has been accepted at UA and awarded a Presidential Scholarship for full tuition. She's in the process of applying for the Honors College. Today she received in the mail information about applying to Blount. We aren't clear exactly WHY she would want to apply for Blount vs. just applying to the Honors College and Honors dorms. Can anyone provide some additional details - is this something she should consider? The DVD didn't entice her much - so we're wondering if we are missing something.</p>

<p>I think UniDad hit it on the spot. I would agree with you, don’t see the pros of Blount.</p>
